Theory and Practice of Triple Helix Model in Developing Countries
contributes to the expanding literature on "triple helix"
innovation - focusing on developing countries. The book is based on
practical cases and experiences from Africa, Latin America and
Asia. Relevant experiences and best practices from developed
countries are also examined. The book is presented as a response to
the growing awareness about the need for policy shift from the
traditional technology transfer practice to a policy position that
is capable of providing a sustainable basis for innovation and
technological progress in developing countries. The book explores
the triple helix system of innovation based on the dynamics of the
interactive relationships between government, industry and
universities in the creation, dissemination and sharing of
knowledge in developing countries. A major point addressed by the
book is the extent to which the triple helix' system of
relationships between university, industry and government can
enhance the effectiveness of universities in developing countries
as agents of innovation, industrialization and sustainable
development.
The Maghreb countries had a promising start in economic growth
after independence. For the most part they thrived on
industrialisation by import substitution; but unfortunately this
strategy left them with macroeconomic and structural imbalances
which together have effectively constrained their ability to
compete in the world economic system and to catch up with the
rapidly changing global techno-economic circumstances. Issues
relating to aspects of technology transfer to the Maghreb,
strategies for technological and resource development and the
integration of education and R&D systems with the productive
systems of the economies in the region are discussed along with
relevant cases from Mexico, China, South Korea, India and
Bangladesh.
