Economic progress requires technological development, which in turn
depends on a country's social capacity to acquire, assimilate, and
develop new technologies. Focusing on the evolution of Japan's
economy from the Meiji Restoration to the present day, this volume
provides an authoritative account, firmly grounded in theoretical
and empirical analysis, of the country's attempts to generate the
necessary social capacity for technological innovation and
absorption. Successive chapters address the specific experiences of
a number of key Japanese industries during this process. Each
industrial case study is written by an acknowledged expert in the
field and presents material of significant interest to specialists
in economic development in a form that is also accessible to the
nonspecialist. The book concludes with a summary of useful lessons,
variously applicable to countries at all the different stages of
industrialization.
