Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Clayton Christensen and Alfred Chandler, both professors from Harvard University, have addressed issues related to corporate strategies for promoting technological innovation. Their work illuminates a difference between how technological innovation occurs within a multinational corporation, and how it occurs outside of multinational organizational structures.The political issue of control over technology is complicated by the fact that technological innovation, as a naturally occurring economic process, can not be 'controlled' by government agencies, but can be controlled and directed by the multinational corporations that are the focus of inquiry by Christensen and Chandler.This book explains how one type of technological innovation, which occurs outside corporate entities, creates the conditions of regional economic prosperity in metro regions for common citizens. That process is called regional self-sustaining economic development.
