Why have some nations succeeded while others failed? The World Bank states that out of over one hundred middle-income economies in 1960, only thirteen became high income by 2008. \u003cem\u003eHow Nations Learn: Technological Learning, Industrial Policy, and Catch-up\u003c\/em\u003e examines how nations learn by reviewing key structural and contingent factors that contribute to dynamic learning and catch-up. Rejecting both the 'one-size-fits-all' approach and the agnosticism that all nations are unique and different, it uses historical as well as firm-, industry-, and country-level evidence and experiences to identify the sources and drivers of successful learning and catch-up and the lessons for late-latecomer countries. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAuthored by eminent scholars, the volume aims to generate interest and debate among policy makers, practitioners, and researchers on the complexity of learning and catch-up. It explores technological learning at the firm level, policy learning by the state, and the cumulative and multifaceted nature of the learning process, which encompasses learning by doing, by experiment, emulation, innovation, and leapfrogging.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arkebe Oqubay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198841760\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198841760\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/13\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.30w x 1.20d","brand":"Arkebe Oqubay","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44634222100735,"sku":"9780198841760","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2b1089e0-2ef6-41c8-8c9f-09a90f80fd92.jpg?v=1703588183","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/how-nations-learn-arkebe-oqubay-9780198841760","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
