Most of the attention has been focussed on the choice and acquisition of technological assets. By using a profusion of empirical data It has been possible to assess the cost of transfer by looking at both Its explicit and Implicit costs (I.e. royalty payments on the one hand and restrictive clauses attached to the transaction on the other)(1). For the most part; this approach departs radically from the neoclassical assumptions which considered technical change as manna arriving In the firm at no cost(2).
