abstract |
Recent empirical evidence across countries shows a substantial and increasing return
to IT investment. New technologies open up opportunities for small firms to expand
their markets beyond national borders. This books looks specifically at ICT adoption
and learning trajectories in developing countries; a context characterized by skill
deficiencies and weak institutional support. The authors employ a systemic theoretical
framework and a variety of research techniques to present firm-level evidence on learning
in firms in an Internet-based production environment. The book arrives at a typology
of firms on the basis of technological capability and learning trajectories. It identifies
systemic and institutional factors that foster the adoption of technologies and goes
on to analyse these factors in a multivariate econometric framework. This book is
an invaluable addition to the literature on small firms and economic development. |
