Abstract
The two-part article focuses on the unique institutional setting which has enabled Japan to become a leader in rapid technology-based indust rial growth. The innovation systems of the United States and Japan are compared. Three cases - fuzzy logic, active matrix crystal displays, and virtual reality - are examined. The underlying systemic characteri stics are then probed.
