Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is concerned with the examination of the role of the electronics industry in the development of developing countries. The electronics, which is a backbone of modern industrial activities, has stimulated growth in developed countries. The main aim of this study, therefore, is to test whether the consumption and production of electronics could stimulate similar growth in developing countries. With this object in view we have focused our attention upon answering two basic questions: viz., 1) What impact do electronics have on the development of the developing countries? 2) If the electronics industry were found to be vital to developing countries, do the developing countries possess the necessary resources to undertake production of electronics technology and products? The answers to these questions are presented in two parts. In Part 1, we have attempted to answer the first question using analytical techniques. We have observed that consumption and production of electronics will create technological transformation in the economy and thereby accelerate the speed of development. We have also analysed the technological characteristics of electronics and found that the continuous chain of innovations produced by the electronics industry has created significant impact on the growth of the economy via both investment and technological multiplier effects. In the light of this discussion, some general hypotheses were suggested to the effect, that the growth of the electronics industry has a significant contribution to the growth of the economy. Part II deals with providing answers to the second question which takes the form of an empirical examination of industry's structure, vertically as well as horizontally. The former deals with the economics and production aspects of the electronic products and technology at the national level, and the latter with the production at the global level. As a case study, we studied the U.K. electronics industry for an in-depth investigation into its vertical structure. For a global examination, we analysed the following aspects, such as : growth trends in selected countries, both developed and developing; the role of multinational companies in international production; their impact on the economy of a developing country; and the trends in the international consumption of electronics. On the basis of this analysis, we assessed the potentialities of the electronics industry for developing countries and found that because of the dominating position held by multinational companies in technology, production and marketing of electronic products, the prospects for developing countries to promote the growth of their own industry are extremely limited. We have, therefore, suggested a co-operative strategy on the part of the developed and developing countries to organise the production of electronics at the international level. This research has been conducted in the face of severe limitation of data and information with respect to the electronics industry. There has been a relative absence of any academic research in this industry, particularly in relation to the problems and aspirations of the developing countries to promote the growth of such industry. This industry, as we see in this thesis, is organised and operated at an international level and, consequently, any analysis of its structure assumes an international dimension. Hence, we found that a detailed and systematic examination of the electronics industry at the international level was very essential, in order to explore its potentialities for any developing country. To that end, this thesis has made, we hope, some significant contribution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vital electronics industry can boost a country's economic growth, provide jobs for skilled workers, and speed development in other sectors. This report shows how to build a modern and competitive electronics industry. It gives step-by-step advice on the market conditions, enterprise strategies, and government policies that can create a successful electronics sector. The editors suggest guidelines to help countries identify competitive segments of industry. They explain why prospects lie in products for industry, computers, and telecommunications. Their advice points out which products countries should focus on initially. It recommends ways to expand, once basic production and skills are established. The role government must play in developing the physical infrastructure and a skilled work force is examined and major trends in the global electronics industry are reviewed in detail. The collection focuses on semiconductors, computers, consumer electronics, and telecommunications. It examines how electronics developed in advanced industrial economies while electronics industries in selected developing economies and newly industrialized economies are also evaluated. The report explores the roles played by foreign investment and technological development. It describes key government interventions that prepared private enterprises--and labor markets--for market competition. The book points out government interventions and industry practices that hampered efficiency and growth and gives practical advice on improving public policies and boosting industry performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book analyses the technology development efforts of Korea's electronics industry (the country's largest exporter). It asks how the Korean electronics industry was able to develop, both in terms of production and technology, despite low inflows of licensing and foreign direct investments. The books argues that the key to its spectacular growth has been through its participation and learning from an inter-firm arrangement called original equipment manufacturing arrangement (OEM). A number of firm-level case studies on the Korean electronics industry support this argument. The role of the government, especially related to its technology policy, has also been analysed. The government was effective in providing financial incentives for the firms' technological upgrading efforts, but its supplying of direct technological assistance had limited success. Overall, this book argues that contrary to many previous studies, the role of multinational enterprises has been significant in the development of Korea's electronics industry, and that they have acted as a 'technological tutor' for Korea through OEM"--P. xiv.tributors, world 0̲.

This book was released on 1999-08-24 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrial Environmental Performance Metrics is a corporate-focused analysis that brings clarity and practicality to the complex issues of environmental metrics in industry. The book examines the metrics implications to businesses as their responsibilities expand beyond the factory gateâ€"upstream to suppliers and downstream to products and services. It examines implications that arise from greater demand for comparability of metrics among businesses by the investment community and environmental interest groups. The controversy over what sustainable development means for businesses is also addressed. Industrial Environmental Performance Metrics identifies the most useful metrics based on case studies from four industriesâ€"automotive, chemical, electronics, and pulp and paperâ€"and includes specific corporate examples. It contains goals and recommendations for public and private sector players interested in encouraging the broader use of metrics to improve industrial environmental performance and those interested in addressing the tough issues of prioritization, weighting of metrics for meaningful comparability, and the longer term metrics needs presented by sustainable development.
