Abstract
No observer of recent developments in the trade and investment relationships among the industrial and industrializing nations of the world can fail to be struck by the extent to which trade and investment flows, and the foreign and domestic public policies affecting them, now influence the technology development and investment decisions of U.S. firms. International and domestic collaborative ventures; RD technical standards; intellectual property protection; foreign investment decisions; “dual-use” technology development, transfer, and support; technology transfer and “offsets”; and access to offshore sources of technological and scientific research, to name only a few issues, now are linked with trade policy and trade negotiations (both bilateral and multilateral) in complex ways. Technology-related issues occupy a much more prominent place than ever before on the trade policy agenda of the United States and other industrial and industrializing economies.1
