Download or read book Economic Development Education and Transnational Corporations written by E. Mark Hanson and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the questions of: why do some economically disadvantaged nations develop significantly faster than others, and what roles do their educational systems play? In the early 1960s Mexico and South Korea were both equally underdeveloped agrarian societies. Since that time, the development strategies pursued by each country resulted in dramatically different results. By the turn of the century South Korea possessed one of the finest educational systems in the world and was a world-class producer of high-tech products. Mexico, on the other hand, was still graduating less than half of its secondary school-age students and bogged down in assembling products owned by others. This book addresses the issues of what happened and why, and frames the consequences for other developing nations facing similar challenges. Professor Hanson argues that the key to understanding involves the manner and intensity in which these countries engaged their educational, governmental and business institutions to acquire manufacturing knowledge from offshored transnational corporations, and how they used these insights to grow their own local industries. Whereas South Korea studied the foreign outsourced plants as if they were educational systems and pursued with tenacity the new knowledge they possessed, Mexico viewed them as ‘cash cows’ that generated wages and reduced unemployment. The author emphasizes that significant educational reform will only break down the barriers of institutional bureaucracies when responding to the pressures and demands of industrialization. This is one of the first books of its kind to compare South-East Asian and Latin American economies and their links to educational systems.

Download or read book Transnational Corporations Institutional Change and Economic Development An Institutional Learning Model for Development written by Mariko Eva Silver and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper examines the role transnational corporations (TNCs) can play as boundary spanners supporting institutional change and policy transfer. Interactions between transnational investors and locationally bound actors increasingly give shape to the shifting geography of economic power and can lead to fundamental and persistent changes in the government, governance, and institutions that influence the character and potential of places. Historical context, path-dependency, power dynamics, and exogenous shocks all influence the formation and fungibility of the institutional matrices that influence prospects for economic growth. This paper examines the processes of institutional change by examining the lived experience of institutions--interactions of specific organizations in context--to shed light on how institutions shape development and how institutions themselves are shaped. A viable TNC acting as boundary spanner will enable learning through legitimate peripheral participation and encourage locationally bound actors to work together with industry toward clearly articulated goals. This study focuses on Intel Corporation's investments in Chengdu, China and the Ho Chi Minh City region of Vietnam. Through multiple interviews over the course of five years, it explores how the corporation pushed for changes to organizations, norms and ways of working in higher education and in economic development organizations, both major determinants of an economic institutional environment. In economic development organizations, Intel encouraged increased accountability and acculturated government officials to the demands and vocabulary of engagement with the global economy. In higher education organizations, mutual articulation of clear learning outcomes and linkages with peer higher-education entities in other countries were among Intel's key contributions.
