Catching up: complementarities between domestic
(DLM) and foregn led modernisation (FLM)
• DLM, which is based exclusively on domestic strategic
choices in industrial and innovation policies – focusing on
technologies and capabilities, has become increasingly
unviable as the sole option.
• FLM alone could ensure ‘spurts’ in growth but only coupling
between FLM/DLM could ensure ‘catching up’
• The critical issue is how the national industrial system
manages complementarity between FLM and DLM so that it
promotes rather than undermines endogenous technological
capability
• Why coupling is difficult? Matching different layers of
integration (finance, market, production, technology) does
not emerge automatically = network failures > network 6
alignment.
