The two countries are home to nearly 40 percent of the world's population, but until recently neither had played an influential role in the contemporary global economy. In the past two decades, China and India have liberalized internal economic policy, treatment of foreign investment, and trade, and have experienced economic growth at sustained high rates. From the point of view of the United States, however, the most important development in the Chinese and Indian economies in the long term may be the strides they are making in developing their own domestic innovation capacities. After a long period of underinvestment, both countries have committed to growing their science and education systems to bolster research and further economic expansion. Some observers of the recent growth have said that both countries are surging in their efforts to spur innovation; others have emphasized the potential of one country over the other; and still others have suggested that both China and India have a long way to go before achieving innovation-driven growth. With such a range of views, The National Academies set out to describe developments in both countries, in relation to each other and the rest of the world, by organizing a conference in Washington, D.C. The conference, summarized in this volume, discussed recent changes at both the macroeconomic level and also in selected industries, and explored the causes and implications of those changes.Technological innovationsChina21st centuryCongressesTechnological innovationsIndia21st centuryCongressesGlobalizationChinaCongressesGlobalizationIndiaCongressesChinaEconomic conditions2000-CongressesIndiaEconomic conditions21st centuryCongressesTechnological innovationsTechnological innovationsGlobalizationGlobalization338/.0640951Merrill Stephen A1807734Taylor David20950Pool Robert1955-288454National Research Council (U.S.).Committee on the Competitiveness and Workforce Needs of U.S. Industry.National Research Council (U.S.).Board on Science, Technology, and Economic Policy.National Research Council (U.S.).Policy and Global Affairs.Dragon and the Elephant: Understanding the Development of Innovation Capacity in China and India(2007 :Washington, D.C.)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910955928203321The Dragon and the Elephant4363695UNINA
