Technology, Regions, and Policy examines the links between technological change, regional development, and government policy. This timely book provides a synthesis of recent scholarship-the results of original research projects carried out by a distinguished group of academics. It explores the complex questions of how high-technology areas develop, the factors influencing the spread of industrial technology, and the impact of technological change on labor creation and displacement.
