Nové trendy v európskej priemyselnej politike
New Trends in European Industrial Policy

Summary/Abstract: Over the last decade substantial changes appeared within the approaches towards industrial policy. The study in its initial parts monitors changes in the EU. It is notable that an old conflict was mastered between the sectoral and horizontal approaches. A combination of horizontal measures and their imple-mentation according to particular industries and their attributes results in a sort of matrix type of industrial policy. The industrial policy turns increasingly into that of a complex and systemic character. Key importance of knowledge and innovation for economic growth calls for actions facing specific problems connected with its creation, distribution and use in economic activities. Therefore, the second part of the study pays special attention to a model of knowledge-oriented industrial policy. It deals with its theoretical background, the changes in the role of the state and with policy instruments.
