The political economy of export-oriented industrialization in developing areas

Abstract

This research paper focused upon particular, rapidly changing elements of the transnational dimensions of underdevelopment (as will be seen, those relating particularly to industrialization, international trade and technology transfer) in the belief that they have not been adequately analyzed before and that their long run significance is very great. As will be seen below, this belief corresponds in certain major respects with those increasingly being expressed by scholars and policy¬ makers in the less developed countries themselves.
