This paper provides an Indian perspective on the issue of technology transfer, in the specific context of tackling climate change. The paper examines how technology transfer issues have panned out when developing countries have had to meet standards laid down in international agreements. In addressing climate change, the efficacy of the CDM as an instrument to facilitate technology transfer is analysed. The socio-political and economic analysis of implementing the clean development mechanism provides useful insights. An indicative exercise on India’s export vulnerability in the face of alternative regulatory regimes such as imposition of carbon tariffs demon-strates the importance of technology transfer mechanisms between the developed and developing countries. The attainment of sustainable development through forward looking mechanisms of technology transfer will improve India’s contribution to a global solution for climate change.

Artykuł przedstawia doświadczenia związane z transferem technologii w kontekście przeciwdziałania zmianom klimatycznym na przykładzie Indii. Transfer technologii może przynieść oczekiwane rezultaty, gdy kraje rozwi-jające się sprostają standardom zawartym w międzynarodowych porozumieniach. W kontekście zmian klima-tycznych i transferu technologicznego została przeanalizowana skuteczność instrumentu CDM (Clean Deve-lopment Mechanism, mechanizm czystego rozwoju). Uwzględniono aspekty społeczno-polityczne i ekonomicz-ne. Przykład wrażliwości indyjskiego eksportu w obliczu alternatywnych systemów regulacyjnych, takich, jak nałożenie podatku węglowego, ukaże znaczenie mechanizmów transferu technologii pomiędzy rozwiniętymi a rozwijającymi się krajami. Osiągnięcie rozwoju zrównoważonego przy pomocy wybiegających w przyszłość mechanizmów transferu tech-nologicznego pozwoli powiększyć wkład Indii do globalnego rozwiązania problemu klimatycznego.
