Abstract

We are currently witnessing a global transition towards a new technological paradigm based on micro-electronics and information, which replaces the previous paradigm structured around cheap oil and other energy-intensive materials. The opportunities that new technologies open up for developing countries are truly manifold. We argue that the configuration of a new industrial structure freed from the insufficiencies of the historical model requires the implementation of a coherent industrial policy. However, none of the countries in the region is in a position to face the challenges of technological modernization with any possibility of success, so an organization that follows the example of the European Economic Community proves essential.
