Abstract
En este trabajo se reconstruyen y examinan las dos grandes estrategias
de crecimiento de las empresas químicas alemanas en España entre 1880 y 1936: la exportación y la inversión directa. Ambas fueron, en todo el mundo,
importantes vías de transferencia tecnológica especialmente después de la Primera Guerra Mundial. Para averiguar por qué en la industria química española los efectos modemizadores del primer mversor mundial fueron tan escasos, se abordan dos tareas: 1) valorar la estratega de las firmas alemanas en España a la luz de las desplegadas en todo el mundo, y 2) analizar las medidas que las empresas y la Administración españolas aplicaron para defender el mercado nacional y fomentar el surgmuento y la consolidación de la
industria química española.
This paper reconstructs and examines the growth strategies displayed by the German chemical industry in Spain between 1880 and 1936: exports and direct investment. Elsewhere both became instrumental for the transfer of technology and managerial skills, particularly after World War I. In order to understand why the effects of the fírst world chemical investor were so poor on the Spanish industry, the German strategies are analyzed in the light of those followed elsewhere. Furthermore, those policies applied both by the Spanish firms and Administration to encourage the rise and development of the local industry are also examined.
