This article deals with global economic rents (GER), which are a product of the global integration of production and the emergence of new patterns of competition. The theoretical antecedents of the concept are found in the classical economic theory of Marx and Schumpeter. This states that analysis of integrated world production has placed elaboration of the subject on new ground connecting the organization of the firm with knowledge assets and technological changes. However, it will have to go further than this. With the exception of companies in the dynamic economies of Asia, China and to an increasingly greater extent India, the other developing countries have a precarious position in the struggle for GER, this constituting a further limit on their development.

Keywords : global competition; national development; economic rents; business strategies; competition policies and technological learning.
