Technological Exchange Between the United States and Europe: An Attempt in Explaining Shifting Perceptions,

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to find out whether some of the lessons that can be drawn from the European technology gap of the '60s can be of interest in understanding the present American problem. We shall therefore (1) review the European arguments, (2) try to find out how relevant they have proved to be after a few years, (3) investigate better ways to assess the impact of technological differences, with reference to the current American arguments about technology export, and (4) attempt some conclusions on the policy implications of transferring technology.
