Technology, trade, and growth in OECD countries

Description:

"Presenting new material and a fresh perspective, this book provides a unifying framework for the exploration of the role played by specialisation in economic growth and international competitiveness. Particular attention is devoted to the role of Technological specialisation in Information and Communication Technology (ICT)." "Building upon the idea that technical change is the driving force of economic growth, the author explores the channels through which specialisation can impact on growth." "For scholars and postgraduate students working in the fields of technical change, international trade and economic growth, this book will also be of substantial interest to policy makers and advisors involved in defining the priorities for science and technology."--Jacket.
