  • Gold, Bela

Abstract

After calling attention to some misleading conceptions of the industrial sectors facing increasing challenges from abroad, the analysis highlights the primary sources of recent shortcomings in the competitiveness of major industries in the US and in some other long industrialized economies. Suggestions are then offered concerning potential corrective policies available to national governments, to managements, to trade unions and to universities as well. Finally, the need for long term perspectives in formulating and implementing such constructive programs is emphasized along with the need to integrate them with other major programs for promoting the national welfare.
