Abstract
The purpose of the paper is to analyse the nature and patterns of adoption of Advanced Manufacturing Technologies (AMTs) in the Indian auto components industry in light of the policy changes in India and changes in world automotive industry. We empirically investigate the determinants of AMT adoption in order to tease out the parameters of technological change. The process of technology diffusion is dynamic and appears to have been driven by an apparent objective of steering the industry in the direction of an innovation-driven industry. The evolution of the industry in the light of these is discussed and relevant policy implications are spelled out in the paper.
期刊介绍:
The IJTG provides a refereed and authoritative source of analysis on the interactions between technological innovation and globalisation. It serves as an international forum for exchange of ideas and views on the global implications of technology for economic growth, sustainable development and international security. IJTG aims to promote communication among policy makers, experts and professionals in government, industry, academia and civil society. IJTG is co-sponsored by the Science, Technology and Globalisation Project at Harvard University"s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs and the Science, Technology and Innovation Program, housed in Harvard University"s Center for International Development.
