The Development of High Technology Industries : An International Survey, Paperback / softback Book

The Development of High Technology Industries : An International Survey Paperback / softback

Edited by Michael J Breheny, Ronald Mcquaid

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: The Economics and Business of Technology series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book, originally published in 1988, reviews the development of high technology industries at global and selected national and local levels, providing a unique insight into reasons for and consequences of such modern industrial development.

It appraises government policies for assisting the development of this sector and focuses on the fact that high tech industry tends to be concentrated in particular regions of countries which attain the status of 'successful populations'.

High technology industry seems to offer little benefit to declining manufacturing areas and the book offers explanations for these regional concentrations and assesses the likely consequences.
