Abstract

Vajon az információs technológiai forradalom képes volt-e olyan módon lendületet adni a kutatás-fejlesztési tevékenység nemzetköziesedésének, hogy a folyamat ne csupán a legfejlettebb országok között haladjon előre, hanem a korábbiaknál több országra terjedjen ki? A K F-tevékenység globalizációja a technológia globális vagy lokális diffúzióját erősíti fel? A szerző e kérdésekre keresi a választ, majd kiindulva az információs technológiai forradalomnak a technológiai felzárkózásra gyakorolt két, eltérő irányú és erejű hatásából (a technológiai színvonal folyamatos növekedése, illetve a technológiai világszínvonalhoz való közeledés megkönnyítése), azt a kérdést vizsgálja, hogy összességében növekedett-e vagy csökkent az a technológiai rés, amely az informatikai feldolgozóiparra specializálódott felzárkózó országokat a világszínvonaltól elválasztja.* Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) kód: F23, O31,O33.
