The new Asian innovation dynamics

"This empirically and conceptually rich volume identifies the emerging dynamics in the broader areas of science, technology and R & D in China and India by identifying the principal forces and actors at work that shape the new global division of labour in the internationalization of technology and innovation. Rather than assuming that economic globalization leads inevitably to higher valued economic activities, the authors in this volume show that strategic choices made by multinational firms, local businesses and governments are influencing the emerging innovation dynamics and explores the key challenges faced by China and India in their quest for innovation upgrading. The volume focuses on how shifting competitiveness not only increases economic growth, but also imposes costs on industries and social groups that are either losing out or being excluded from this emerging economic dynamics for various reasons."--Jacket.
