Summary, etc. | The accelerating pace of technological development provides a potential for massive social and economic benefits on the one hand and for industrial chaos on the other. The developments themselves are exciting if not awe inspiring; their effect on our practical world depends on how they are applied.

They recommended to Commonwealth Heads of Government, the establishment of a working group to examine member countries' experience in managing techno logical change to assist these countries in their planning, training and adjustment strategies.<br/><br/>The working group prepared and published a report, "Technological Change - enhancing the benefits", and consequently a number of project activities have emerged, aimed at sharing experiences in this field.<br/><br/>This bibliography has been jointly prepared by the Intermediate Technology Development Group and the Commonwealth Secretariat, as a direct contribution to the sharing of knowledge and understanding in the Management of Technological Change. |
