- Description:
- The problem that will be discussed in this study is that the process of transferring technology from developed countries to less developed countries is so inefficient that it tends to widen the existing tachnological gap between them. An attempt is made by the writer to examine the process of transferring technology from developed countries to less developed countries, in order to see whether such transfer will narrow the technological gap between them or not. The result obtained from this study is that technology transfer is a very important condition for the industrial development in less developed countries. However, technology transfer from developed countries to less developed countries has been accompanied by many restrictions and limitations. Such action will never result in an increase of technological capabilities of less developed countries and will keep the technological gap continually wide between them and the developed countries. The main sources of information were the United Nations Documents on Transfer of Technology. Many books, journals and periodicals were also used as references.
