| Whakarāpopototanga: | "This significant new book investigates what motivates industries in developing countries to adopt environmentally sound technology (EST) - a subject about which very little is actually known. The authors present the findings of a United Nations study of the factors that determined EST adoption by 98 manufacturing plants in three different sectors within eight developing countries. They explore both factors internal to the plants as well as external factors including governments, markets and civil society." "Environment and Industry in Developing Countries will be of great interest to development assistance agencies supporting programmes for industrial environmental management in developing countries, and also to graduate school programmes in economic development, technology management, as well as in international business."--BOOK JACKET. |
