MNCs and the transfer and diffusion of soft technologies: Issues for Central and Eastern Europe
This article examines the transfer of innovative soft technologies by multinational companies (MNCs) through foreign direct investment and the diffusion of those technologies by those MNCs into indigenous firms (IFs). By drawing upon the experience of such transfer and diffusion in the developed capitalist economies, it highlights issues germane to that transfer and diffusion within restructuring Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries. It suggests that MNC strategies, host country and country of origin government policies characteristic of national business systems, the capabilites of IFs and the nature of knowledge are key factors in understanding the transfer of soft technologies to CEE.
