Abstract

This chapter seeks to contribute to the debate on the issues of globalization of firm-level innovative technological capability and industrial strategy in the late-industrializing context. Although these issues have been examined since the early 1970s in the late-industrializing literature, it becomes increasingly important today as globalization and trade liberalization gather pace and some developing countries and areas are coping well, while others are being left further behind (Lall, 2004). Thus, it is important to know the extent to which some developing countries and/or areas are really responding to such phenomena. There are two additional reasons for addressing these issues here.
