Trade in Technology by a Slowly Industrialising Country: India

Chapter 10 in Multinationals, Technology and Exports, 1985, pp 203-226 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The analysis of technology transfer from the industrialised to the developing countries has passed through several phases.2 It started with the problems of implementing modern production methods in relatively primitive environments and the costs of transfer in inherently imperfect and oligopolistic markets for knowledge. It then moved on to problems of socio-economic appropriateness of imported technologies and their adaptation to developing country needs. More recently, it has concerned itself with the interaction of technological generation and technology imports in the more industrialised developing countries (NICs). One strand of this literature, in which I have been particularly involved, has concentrated on exports of technology by (including the emergence of multinational enterprises from) the NICs.3
