摘要:
AbstractUsing Canada as an example, Freeman's classification of industrial innovation within firms is applied to national systems of innovation. Canada's technological strategy has largely been imitative and defensive, and has fostered the promotion of national unity. In the future this strategy may be self-defeating as non-renewable resources become depleted and the toll on the environment becomes increasingly heavy.

摘要:
AbstractJapanese industrial competitiveness is analysed using the electronics industry as an example. The analysis shows that the industrial competitiveness is due to a combination of factors, including development and upgrading of manufacturing facilities, promotion of skills and organisational learning and nurturing new industries and technologies.Some of the most important lessons that can he derived from the Japanese experiences are: comprehensive technology monitoring and forecasting are needed to identify thrust areas, and investment banks, government and industries need to have a strategic vision of where the industry should focus; industry-government interactions have to be mutually supportive, consensus oriented and participative but not coercive; and flexible production or automation is the direction in which advanced industrial economies are moving.

摘要:
AbstractUsing the organisational developments of the Fraunhofer Society and the growth process of new telecommunications services in West Germany as examples, the continuity and discontinuity of social processes are investigated using the concepts of path-dependency and critical mass. In both cases, as soon as the network exceeded a critical threshold the growth became self stimulating. However, they also show how, in the initial phases, critical decisions, historical accidents, exogenous shocks and situational coincidences may channel a development in a certain pathway.

摘要:
AbstractThe aim of the Human Genome Project is to map and eventually obtain the complete DNA sequence of the 24 different chromosomes that comprise the human genome. The information stemming from the project promises to revolutionise our understanding of genetic disease and the genetic components underlying individual human differences.This improved understanding is likely to bring considerable benefits in terms of improved diagnosis and perhaps treatment of a range of diseases. However, it will also raise a number of ethical and social questions in areas such as confidentiality and protection of privacy, and the use of genetic testing in employment or for insurance purposes. Funding for the HGP in the United States includes a specific allocation for research into the ethical, legal and social issues, and it is argued that a similar commitment is needed in the UK.
