This volume describes how conflicting managerial factors become mobilized to co-operate in situations of discontinuous technological change. The author develops a conceptual framework to analyze how technological discontinuities are managed within firms. The mobilization of management is shown to emerge, in part, from the resources in the sectoral and national context. These ideas are explored through an in-depth case study of the Finnish paper industry, in which the Finnish firms are major players at the cutting edge of technological innovation. The national perspective is particularly productive here, because it reveals the processes through which even limited resources can lead to industrial prosperity and success.
