GAINING STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE: U.S. COMPETITIVENESS AND THE CAPABILITY OF GOVERNMENT

Abstract

Discussions regarding United States competitiveness in the world today often include and even accept the idea of government business “partnerships.” Gaining strategic advantage is seen as a matter of changing the role and also the priorities of government, and developing new relationships with the business community. This creates new expectations for our public officials. Experts are saying in many different ways that economic progress reflects an increase in a nation's goods sold on world markets; greater global “market share” for that nation's products; or an increased ability to attract foreign investment. In each case, the key actor is the multinational corporation.
