Abstract: | The article deals with automotive catalytic converter, which was introduced in Chile in a little more than a year in the beginning of the 1990s. The critical factors for this process are argued to have been the effective and efficient adoption and adaptation of foreign technology, policy, and market space, Chile's common understanding of the need to reduce emissions, and prevalent strong economic growth permitting widespread car ownership and renewal. |
