Facilitating Indigenous Technical Change in Third World Countries

In: Technological Capability in the Third World

Author

  • Frances Stewart

Abstract

What is indigenous technology? I take it to be a local capacity to create/adapt/modify technology. In other words, as well as the creation of some completely new technology, it includes the local development of technology already known elsewhere and the local modification of imported technologies.
