Originally published in 1990 this book provides an authoritative
and detailed account of the initiatives of US state governments
with science and technology programs designed to foster economic
growth. Two key questions are posed: Do state governments have
policy instruments that are sufficiently powerful to affect
thelevels and growth rates of their regional economies? and Are
national and global economic forces so powerful that they render
state action ineffective? Several subsidiary themes are discusses
in this context, namely: the most commonly used policy instruments,
the impacts on federalism and on governance and how well the
universities and other educational institutions serve the economic
activities imposed on them.
