| Abstract
|
:
|
This book explains why states intervene and (or) retaliate in some high-technology industries but not in others, and how these commercial rivalries are likely to unfold. Professor Busch argues that states subsidize national champions in industries promising externalities that domestic industries are primed to make use of, spend more on subsidies where these benefits do not escape national borders, and are more likely to bring these commercial rivalries back from the brink of a trade war where strategic-trade policies leave both states worse off. This book is among the first to argue specifically about externalities and to evaluate how they have, or have not, shaped decisions for strategic trade in several of the most important commercial rivalries in high technology.

Drawing on new and previously unreported documentation from governments, firms, industry associations, and expert observers in Europe, Japan, and the United States, Busch sheds new light on the high-technology rivalries in civil aircraft, semiconductors, high-definition television, robotics, and superconductors.
