Abstract

"This book examines how technological modernisation and innovation policies have been implemented in Russia from the Soviet era to the present day. It discusses how since about 2000 the Russian state has attempted to address the country's excessive dependence on natural resources by implementing an ambitious programme of economic modernisation, including giving innovation more policy prominence, boosting state funding for research and development and innovation, and emphasising science towns and technology parks as key instruments for stimulating innovation. Based on extensive original research, taking a multidisciplinary approach, and including detailed case studies, the book explains why, despite these efforts, Russia is performing comparatively poorly in innovation outcomes. It argues that a key factor is the country's political economy model in which science, technology, and innovation policies are mainly controlled and funded by the federal centre of power and led by domestic political and economic elites"--

Abstract

After 1991, India after decades of stifling its own economic growth, has reformed its economy and has implemented its Look East policy to enhance its economic, business and trade linkages with East Asian economies. At the same time, Singapore has reached its own domestic limits to economic growth and is encouraging its companies to invest overseas to create its 'external economic wing'. Collaboration in information technology (IT) formed the key to initiating economic cooperation between Singapore and India. India has excellent IT talent but inadequate infrastructure to tap this talent for economic growth while Singapore has excelled in building high technology parks. The resulting collaboration is Singapore's flagship investment, the IT Park in Bangalore, India.

Abstract

Berceau des technologies numériques (Google, Apple, Facebook, Uber, Netflix, etc.), la Silicon Valley incarne l’insolente réussite industrielle de notre époque. Cette terre des chercheurs d’or, devenue après-guerre le cœur du développement de l’appareil militaire et de l’informatique, est aujourd’hui le lieu d’une frénésie innovatrice qui entend redéfinir de part en part nos existences à des fins privées, tout en déclarant oeuvrer au bien de l’humanité. Mais la Silicon Valley ne renvoie plus seulement à un territoire, c’est aussi et avant tout un esprit, en passe de coloniser le monde. Une colonisation d’un nouveau genre, portée par de nombreux missionnaires (industriels, universités, think tanks…), et par une classe politique qui encourage l’édification de valleys sur les cinq continents, sous la forme d’écosystèmes numériques et d’incubateurs de start-up. Après avoir retracé un historique de la Silicon Valley, ce livre, à la langue précise et élégante, montre comment un capitalisme d’un nouveau type est en train de s’instituer, un technolibéralisme qui, via les objets connectés et l’intelligence artificielle, entend tirer profit du moindre de nos gestes, inaugurant l’ère d’une « industrie de la vie ». Au-delà d’un modèle économique, c’est un modèle civilisationnel qui s’instaure, fondé sur l’organisation algorithmique de la société, entraînant le dessaisissement de notre pouvoir de décision. C’est pour cela qu’il est urgent d’opposer à ce mouvement prétendument inexorable d’autres modalités d’existence, pleinement soucieuses du respect de l’intégrité et de la dignité humaines
