In an increasingly knowledge-based economy, Canadian
universities are important spaces for the development of research
and innovation in many areas. This collection is the first
systematic examination of the evolving relationship between the
federal government and Canadian universities as revealed through
changes in federal research and innovation policies.
Focusing on the last two decades of federal policy under the
Chr?tien and Martin Liberal governments and the Harper Conservative
government, Research and Innovation Policy considers issues such as
the transformation of federal research granting bodies, the
creation of new research infrastructure funding organizations such
as the Canada Foundation for Innovation, pressures and incentives
to create intellectual property and to commercialize, and the
regulation of research ethics. With timely essays ranging in scope
from the regulation of research ethics to the pressures of
commercialization, Research and Innovation Policy is essential
reading for any student or scholar committed to the well-being of
higher education in Canada.
