| Abstract: | Many developing countries suffer from shortages of technical capabilities which can provide a greater handicap to economic development than shortages of capital. The remarkable success of Korea has attracted much interest in how Korea acquired the requisite technology for its rapid industrial development. The few studies on Korea's technology acquisition tend to credit internal factors such as the government's role in purchasing licenses, providing incentives and training. This article adopts a more holistic approach by considering some of the "external" factors, in particular the role of Japan. |
