N2 - In the book, the Researcher addresses the importance of international technology transfers for economic development, as well as the underlying causes for the different institutional arrangements that promote such activity. The work provides a systematic interpretation of the wide range of interests among developed and developing countries, and how they affect the scope and content of international agreements dealing with technology transfers, especially given the anarchic structure of international trade relations. The research also finds that, contrary to the general view that bilateral trade agreements tend to undermine the effects of multilateral agreements, for the specific case of technology transfers these modalities seem to enjoy a mutually positive effect, and should thus be concurrently promoted
