Abstract
In a South-South perspective the story of India’s export of capital goods to Tanzania is a rather sad story — both viewed from the exporter’s and the importer’s side. But it is also enlightening. Although, as always, a number of circumstances are specific there are lessons to be learnt also for other countries engaged or engaging in South-South trade in capital goods. Moreover, the experience is not exclusively negative; it also demonstrates that against all odds a South-South transfer of technology is possible.1
