The Role of Multinational Corporations in National Innovation Systems in Developing Countries: From Technology Diffusion to International Involvement

Anabel Marin and Valeria Arza

Chapter 10 in Handbook of Innovation Systems and Developing Countries, 2009 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This Handbook is the first attempt to adapt the IS approach to developing countries from a theoretical and empirical viewpoint. The Handbook brings eminent scholars in economics, innovation and development studies together with promising young researchers to review the literature and push theoretical boundaries. They critically review the IS approach and its adequacy for developing countries, discuss the relationship between IS and development, and address the question of how it should be adapted to the realities of developing nations.
