Book The Structure of International Competitiveness in the Federal Republic of Germany

Download or read book The Structure of International Competitiveness in the Federal Republic of Germany written by Frank Dietmar Weiss and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Federal Republic of Germany, the 1980s are likely to see a continuation of the track competition from developing countries and resultant pressures for adjustment. This paper looks at the determinants of West Germany's comparative advantage, using that information in combination with evidence about the evolution of factor endowments and economic policies to assess the likely direction of West Germany's future specialization, particularly with respect to developing countries. Finally, the role of policy in influencing West Germany's specialization and structural adjustment is discussed. This study tested the neo-factor proportions theory and the neo-technology theory, which have been used to explain Germany's comparative advantage, in light of more current data. The conclusions were that craftspeople carried the burden of explanation and that innovativeness and scale economies performed less well. The results also indicated that the developing countries are competitive with West Germany in a far wider range of products than was previously thought.

Book International Competitiveness in Electronics

Download or read book International Competitiveness in Electronics written by Congress of the U.S., Washington, DC. Office of Technology Assessment and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1983 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This assessment continues the Office of Technology Assessment's (OTA) exploration of the meaning of industrial policy in the United States context, while also examining the industrial policies of several U.S. economic rivals. The major focus is on electronics, an area which virtually defines "high technology" of the 1980's. The assessment sets the characteristics of the technology itself alongside other forces that exert major influences over international competitiveness. Specific areas addressed include: electronics technology; structure, trade, and competitiveness in the international electronics industry; quality, reliability, and automation in manufacturing; role of financing in competitiveness and electronics; human resources (education, training, management); employment effects; national industrial policies; and U.S. trade policies and their effects. The report concludes by outlining five options for a U.S. industrial policy, drawing on electronics for examples of past and prospective impacts, as well as on OTA's previous studies of the steel and automotive industries. A detailed summary and introductory comments are included. Also included in appendices are case studies in the development and marketing of electronics products, a discussion of offshore manufacturing, and a glossary of terms used in the assessment. (JN)

This book was released on 1992-02-01 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is technology changing the nature of global competition? Can governments devise policies that help to create comparative advantages for national firms?

It explores current trends in trade and technology policies and the consequences for U.S. economic competitiveness.

The book highlights the critical interplay of domestic and international policies and underscores the need for policymakers to achieve greater complementarity between their domestic and international economic policies.

Book Capitalism Against Capitalism

Download or read book Capitalism Against Capitalism written by Michael Albert and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-01-27 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communism has collapsed. Capitalism has rid itself of the competition on which it thrives. But though now victorious, capitalism has become a threat. The future of us all may be shaped by the outcome of the conflict between capitalism as victor and capitalism as threat. Not only in Europe, but also in the US and Japan - and no doubt shortly in the Eastern countries too - the great debate is capitalism versus capitalism. On the one hand is the "neo-American" model based on individual achievement and short-term profits. On the other is the Rhine model practices in Switzerland, Germany, Benelux, Northern Europe and, partly, in Japan. In the Rhine model collective achievement and public concensus are seen as the keys to long-term success. The first is more seductive, the second more effective. These two opposing forms of capitalism are engaged in a war which, like all internal conflicts, involves both secrecy and even hypocrisy. The outcome of this struggle could affect the quality of life on all levels of society. The author of this book aims to provide a synthesis which will force the reader to consider the political and economic issues at stake towards the end of the century.
