Product Description
This series of books brings together results of an intensive research programme on aspects of the national systems of innovation (NSI) in the five BRICS countries — Brazil Russia India China and South Africa. It provides a comprehensive and comparative examination of the challenges and opportunities faced by these dynamic and emerging economies. In discussing the impact of innovation with respect to economic geopolitical socio-cultural institutional and technological systems it reveals the possibilities of new development paradigms for equitable and sustainable growth. This volume explores the relationship between transnational corporations (TNCs) and NSI across BRICS economies. The essays highlight the role of foreign direct investment (FDI) the evolution of TNCs and examine local factors — such as government policies human resources market structures and technological capabilities — that affect collaborative efforts with indigenous firms towards innovation and development. The authors approach the thesis of technological globalisation with some caution refuting the idea that research and development (R&D) activities have been inexorably internationalised. Original and detailed data together with expert analyses on wide-ranging issues make this book an invaluable resource for researchers and scholars in economics development studies and political science in addition to policy makers and development practitioners interested in the BRICS countries. | Transnational Corporations and Local Innovation BRICS National Systems of Innovation
