Abstract: |
In response to emerging challenge from new
automation technology, some newly industrialization countries attempt to
promote the transfer and assimilation of automation technolgy. This
paper first presents a conceptual framework, by which international
technology transfer and public policies related thereto may be assessed
and then discusses empirical evidence of automation technology transfer
to Korea. It concludes that informal mechanisms are as important as
formal mechanisms in technology transfer. |
