A proposal for modeling the relationship between domestic technology and autarky

Resumen

This paper proposes a method for measuring the autarky of a country based on its technology. The procedure regards an Internal Technological level that depends on technology management and a Self-Sufficiency Potential quantified by the percentage of goods that a country is able to produce within its borders. The usefulness of the procedure for a country is the generation of a Cartesian plane that informs how sensitive is its autarky to technological changes.
