Book excerpt: Presents empirical evidence on the past, present, and future of the global electronics market in a series of comparative analyses of economic competitions using data pertaining to specific countries, industries, and companies. Seeing such competition as a complex dynamic process, compares the macroeconomic performance of selected nations, of their electronics industries, and of corporations in the clustering groups that spread along the electronic technology chain. Argues that the doctrine of free trade is irrelevant and that a country's advantage no longer depends on natural endowments such as climate and minerals, but can be created and accumulated by any country.
