text: An analysis of the experience of Industrial development of the USSR, Japan and India. explains the factors behind successful. ass Imitation and fast expansion of appl lcatlon of foreign techno­ logy. These relate to the special care which given to the meche• nlsm of technology transfer Including rejection of foreign Investment. full control over Imported technology. development of local capacities to reproduce the Imported types of products~ creation with ful I governmental support of powerful scientific research Institutions and due attention to the formation of cadres of national personnel. The creation In developing countries of foreign enterprises of transnational corporations or joint enterprlses with the participation of foreign capital signifies, as a rule, only transportation of foreign technology In a developing country without Its real transfer and without actual assimilation of such technology In the country.

As an example one may refer to the work of a bauxite mining complex In Guinea constructed with economic and technical assistance of the USSR. The exploitation of this complex was started towards the end of 1974 and two years later the volume of mined bauxites reached and even exceeded the design output whereas the cost in 1978 was only about 401 of the world market price. It must be noted that local specialists working at the complex admtt that during the tnltlal stage not many of them believed In the possibility of reaching the design output during the ses~d year of operation of the complex. However, as It was pofnfed out by the Guineans. the assistance of the soviet experts, their rich experience and readiness to pass their knowledge and production skll Is made the Guinean specialists and workers believe In their own forces and
