This open access book centres on the advisory roles of political
scientists in Europe. Based on a cross-national survey, the book
offers a comparative analysis of the viewpoints and activities of
university-based political scientists on external engagement.
Political scientists in Europe appear more extrovert as academics
than sometimes thought. In their professional functioning they
engage in delivering knowledge and advice to all kinds of
stakeholders in the policy process. This volume contains twelve
in-depth country studies where different trends are visible, from
political regime change to pressure for impact of academic work.
The findings from this comparative analysis may inform our
orientation on interaction between academics and their social and
political environment, and what this means for education and
training in university programs in political science.

Biotechnology is one of the most important new issues to emerge in
the knowledge economy. The Politics of Biotechnology in North
America and Europe provides analysts with a perspective on
policy-making in scientifically advanced countries that integrate
the insights of several approaches and that display a particular
sensitivity to the complexity of policy-making conjectures. This
perspective allows going beyond the simplistic understandings of
biotechnology policy currently prevailing. This volume provides a
rigorous analysis and detailed information on biotechnology policy
in nine countries. The essays included here present the results of
in-depth empirical research in the area of biomedicine and
agro-food biotechnology. The book is, therefore, not only of
interest to policy-makers and policy analysts, but also to anyone
with an interest in biotechnology.
