This text explores the impact of information and communications technologies on the changing economic relationship between Europe and the Developing World, in the context of telematics-related trade, work organization and distance education. The contributors elucidate the reasons why the phenomenon of globalization need not be a battleground of competing nations. The essays written by researchers and practitioners, from the European Union and Developing Countries, identify the areas where policy interventions could lead to "co-operative competition" between the EU and the developing world. The book contains empirical data and should be of particular interest to scholars and policymakers engaged with the questions of spatial division of labour, emerging trading links, information processing work, the "brain-drain" and tele-education.
A US/Brazil trade conflict on the Brazilian protectionist electronics policy developed during 198589. In that period and under the threat of trade sanctions, a few changes were made in the Brazilian policy. Major consequences of the conflict were felt after its conclusion. It was one important political factor among the forces that pushed for the opening of the Brazilian electronics market in the early 1990s.
This collection examines the political conditions affecting science and technology capability building in Latin America. In a comparative discussion centering on Argentina, Brazil and Mexico, the work discusses the capacity Latin American governments have shown in building national systems for the support of innovation in industry. It looks at how state capacities for the design and implementation of science and technology policies have evolved and examines how political factors, such as military rule and authoritarianism, have shaped such capabilities and the pattern of development. In looking ahead to the future economic and social development in Latin America, contributors suggest that selective but active state intervention in favour of technological change will be needed to ensure implementation of realistic technology policies.
