‘Learning’ and the Accumulation of Industrial Technological Capacity in Developing Countries

In: Technological Capability in the Third World

  • Martin Bell

Abstract

Discussion of the role of ‘learning’ in the process of technological development is made difficult by the fact that the term is used to refer to a range of quite different concepts. In common use, the term refers to various processes by which skill and knowledge are acquired by individuals or perhaps organisations. In the context of discussion about technological development, it is often used in this way — for example, to refer to the processes by which individual enterprises acquire technical skills and technical knowledge.
