Includes bibliographical references and index.
pt. I. Introduction -- pt. II. Actors and structure of sectoral systems in developing countries -- pt. III. Dynamics and evolution of sectoral systems.
This book examines in detail the features and dynamics of sectoral systems of innovation and production in developing countries. Processes of rapid growth are usually associated with specific sectors such as automobiles, electronics or software, as well as with the transformation of traditional sectors such as agriculture and food. The book shows, however, that the variations across all these sectors in terms of structure and dynamics is so great that a full understanding of these differences is necessary if innovation is to be encouraged and growth sustained.
