The pathways of development and innovation in information technology involve interactions among a number of sciences and technologies and the social, political, and economic milieu in which they find themselves. No single factor will decisively determine the direction, the success or failure, or the competitiveness of one country relative to others, which makes grand strategies for specific technological development and innovation notoriously unreliable. Therefore, although growing technical capacity in developing countries helps their economic growth, the world is not quite flat. In fact, information technology may exacerbate national differences, rather than lead to international homogenization, and technological developments in general may be differentially affected by a nation's traditional regulatory and legal institutions. All of these issues reinforce the need to approach modern technological development and innovation as a systems problem with technical and social dimensions, not reducible to a separate consideration of its technical, government, and sociological parts.
