Industrial dependence and technological underdevelopment: Canadian consequences of foreign direct investment
Britton J. N. H. (1980) Industrial dependence and technological underdevelopment: Canadian consequences of foreign direct investment, Reg. Studies 14, 181–199. Canada's trade failures in secondary and especially in high-technology manufactures over recent decades derive from a lack of high-technology specialisations in the industrial structure. This sympton of underdevelopment has its origins in the direct and indirect effects of foreign control of over half Canada's secondary manufacturing. Innovation and product-development functions have failed to expand in Canada and the centralization of technical, scientific and managerial jobs in the home economies of the multinationals truncates the Canadian industrial system. A new technological strategy is required to combat the combined impact of high costs, low productivity, and insignificant and general technological weakness. The major elements of such a strategy are identified.
