Diane Sombrowski untersucht die Bedeutung der Inputevaluation für die Vergabe von Forschungsmitteln insbesondere im 6. Forschungsrahmenprogramm und illustriert anhand eines Fallbeispiels die Umsetzung der modifizierten Inputevaluation in der Generaldirektion Informationsgesellschaft. Sie kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass nicht allein die Qualität der Projekte über die Förderung entscheidet, sondern vor allem politisch-strategische Kriterien eine Rolle spielen, die die Verfahrenskonsistenz und letztlich die Vergabegerechtigkeit beeinträchtigen können.
"This year's 'Research and Innovation performance in the EU. Innovation Union progress at country level-2014', which covers the whole R&I cycle, tackles both investments in R&I and reforms within the national science, technology and innovation systems. It highlights areas of scientific and technological strengths at the national level, presents developments linked to newly enacted R&I strategies, examines how the upgrading of manufacturing industries is progressing, and addresses the overall link between R&I and progress towards the goals set by the Europe 2020 strategy. In addition, the 2014 analysis presents a number of novelties, among which is an analysis of the factors underlying each country's performance, using the Commission's new Innovation Output Indicator, and its focus on the science and technology specialisation patterns based on the thematic priorities of the EU's Seventh Framework Programme for Research and Innovation."--Editor.
"The responsible governance of scientific research and technological innovation has become a political and policy concern throughout the world. Many have argued that the unfettered promotion of science and innovation is necessary to the economic vitality, public health, and national security of any country. At the same time there are those who maintain that neither science and technology nor the market can be left to operate wholly on their own without societal guidance and regulation. European experience offers informed perspectives on such issues in ways that may help inform larger discussions. It is thus useful to consider what can be seen through the eyes of Europe concerning the pursuit...
"This report is the product of an expert group acting under a mandate from the European Commission Directorate General for Research to which legal scholars, sociologists, philosophers and political scientists from Europe, the United States of America, China and South-Africa have contributed. This report seeks to advance a vision of global governance for the common good that invokes European principles of good governance and fundamental rights. It is our belief that the European Union as a political entity situated between the national and global levels, with its principles of good governance, its charter of fundamental rights and commitments to a European Research Area, is ideally placed to encourage critical reflection and undertake practical leadership in relation to the global governance of science and innovation. Our recommendations are addressed not only to policymakers in the European Commission and the Member States of the EU, but equally to those organisations worldwide operating within and around science." -- Editor.
