Abstract

Two of the factors governing the growth and development of new technologies are the free flow of information and a competitive trading environment. Many of the laws and regulations governing trade and information flow in the United States are derived in part from a set of policies designed to enhance military and national security through technological growth. During the 1980s, the federal government implemented a set of international trade policies which, in an attempt to protect U.S. dominance in high technology, severely restricted both trade and information flow. The historical roots of this policy and its effectiveness are examined in light of the current position of the United States as a center for high technology. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
