Raktažodžiai:
This book presents a comprehensive study of adoption and diffusion of technology in developing countries in a historical perspective. Combining the development of growth trajectories of the Indian economy in general and its manufacturing industry in particular, the book highlights the effective marriage between qualitative and quantitative methods for a better understanding and explaining of many hidden dynamic behaviors of adoption and diffusion trend in manufacturing industry. The use of various econometric methods is aimed to equip readers to make a judgement of the current state of diffusion pattern of new technologies in India and simulate a desirable future pattern in view of the various pro-industrial growth policies.

Introduction.- Theoretical and empirical literature on diffusion: A move towards a broader perspective.- Integrating models of diffusion: A conceptual framework for research.- A synoptic review of the Indian automotive and auto components industry.- A comparative regional analysis of Indian auto components industry.- Dynamics of inter-firm linkages in Indian automotive industry: A social network analysis.- Technological and organizational innovations in auto components industry: An analysis of survey data from diffusion perspective.-AMT diffusion in Indian auto components industry: An examination of the determinants of adoption.- Geographical proximity and adoption of AMTs in Indian auto components industry.- Summary and Conclusions.
