Artykuł przedstawia przegląd literatury dotyczącej międzynarodowego przepływu technologii, w szczególności kanałów umożliwiających wymianę wiedzy. Omówiono główne koncepcje dotyczące wymiany handlowej oraz bezpośrednich inwe-stycji zagranicznych (BIZ), a także ich wpływ na wzrost łącznej produkcyjności czynni-ków wytwórczych (total factor productivity – TFP). Zaprezentowane koncepcje wskazują na pozytywne efekty zarówno handlu, jak i BIZ dla międzynarodowych przepływów tech-nologii, przy czym podkreślają również znaczenie wspólnej analizy kanałów transferu wiedzy. Wskazano również na znaczenie środowiska instytucjonalnego, w tym polityk prowadzonych przez kraj przyjmujący technologię.

The article presents a review of the literature related to the international flow of technologies, focusing on channels of knowledge sharing. The importance of main theories, including trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) was discussed, as well as their impact on the increase in total factor productivity (TFP). The presented concepts concerns the positive effects of both, trade and FDI on international flow of technology, and underline the significance of common analysis of knowledge transfer channels. The validity of institutional environment, including policies pursued by the host country, was pointed out as a factor responsible for knowledge exchange boosting.
