Technology, Culture and Competitiveness

Technology, Culture and Competitiveness will be essential reading for all those who need to deal with the causes and consequences of rapid technological change in an increasingly globalized world.
The contributors discuss three related areas: how we think about technology and international relations and political economy; in what sense technology is a fundamental component of national competitive advantage and what it means for corporate and public policy; and what the relationship is between technological innovation and global and political economic change.
-- Places technology at the center of the debate on international relations
-- Critiques conventional approaches to the role of technology
-- First volume in a new series
