本文调查了有关国际技术转让的贸易文献，特别关注外国直接投资的作用。人们感兴趣的一个核心问题是跨国公司引进的技术是否会扩散到当地企业。讨论了理论模型的主要结论以及技术溢出的相关实证证据。本文还讨论了东道国有关贸易、外国直接投资和知识产权保护的政策对国际技术转让的潜在影响。 *本文旨在作为世界银行“国际技术扩散的微观基础”研究项目的背景文件。感谢 Amy Glass、Bernard Hoekman、Aart Kraay、Aaditya Mattoo、Howard Pack 和 Jim Tybout 提供的有益评论。
This paper surveys the trade literature on international technology transfer, paying particular attention to the role of foreign direct investment. A central question of interest is whether technologies introduced by multinationals diffuse to local firms. Major conclusions of theoretical models as well as the relevant empirical evidence regarding technology spillovers are discussed. The paper also discusses the potential impact of host country policies regarding trade, foreign direct investment, and intellectual property rights protection on international technology transfer. *This paper is intended to serve as a background paper for the World Bank's “Microfoundations of International Technology Diffusion,” research project. I thank Amy Glass, Bernard Hoekman, Aart Kraay, Aaditya Mattoo, Howard Pack, and Jim Tybout for helpful comments.
