Description
European Technological Collaboration (1987) traces the response to international technological competition by European industries and governments, in promoting greater collaboration both in research and development and in new manufacturing and marketing initiatives. It examines the relative position of European industry in high-technology sectors, and the move towards collaboration on the part of industrialists and governments, and it covers European Community programmes such as Esprit, Race, Brite and Eureka. It concludes with a critique of the case for and against collaboration at a European level, asking how far it is actually promoting greater competitiveness, and how far governments should be actively promoting European, as distinct from multinational, collaboration.
