Science, technology and innovation have long been key factors in
the competitive advantage of nations. Today, however, the new
international political economy is being increasingly driven by
science and technology in new ways. Integration, globalization and
internationalization have all become watchwords for a series of
dynamic processes in which science and technology are deeply
implicated. As a result, not only are the policies of "national"
governments being exposed in terms of the limits of their
sovereignty, but science and technology are being increasingly
implicated in a wide array of public issues - ranging from
security, privacy, development and economic growth to employment,
environment, foreign policy and geopolitics. Clearly, in today's
emerging world, the ways in which governments organize their
science and technology policy, their science and technology
intelligence, and their research advisory structures and resources
matter more today than ever before. In turn, the contract between
science and democracy is being rapidly redefined. This book is the
first to comprehensively discuss these critical issues.
