Abstract

In recent years, the need to address social and environmental challenges has grown in urgency. Climate change, global health, food security and many other global challenges cross national borders and affect a wide range of actors. Yet, in most cases, single governments cannot provide effective solutions. Global challenges call for co-operation on a global scale to build capacity in science, technology and innovation (STI) at both national and international levels. How can international co-operation in STI be scaled up and its scope broadened? How do different modes of governance of international co-operation in STI function and which modes lead to effective and efficient collaboration? Based on case studies, this book presents lessons and good practices on a range of governance mechanisms used for international co-operation in STI to address global challenges. The studies cover organisations that address global challenges including agriculture, food security, health, energy and climate change as well as organisations that bring together various types of actors. It takes a first step towards understanding the complexity of governance of international STI collaboration and provides the basis for future research.

Abstract

Science is increasingly defined by multidimensional collaborative networks. Despite the unprecedented growth of scientific collaboration around the globe—the collaborative turn—geography still matters for the cognitive enterprise. This book explores how geography conditions scientific collaboration and how collaboration affects the spatiality of science.This book offers a complex analysis of the spatial aspects of scientific collaboration, addressing the topic at a number of levels: individual, organizational, urban, regional, national, and international. Spatial patterns of scientific collaboration are analysed along with their determinants and consequences. By combining a vast array of approaches, concepts, and methodologies, the volume offers a comprehensive theoretical framework for the geography of scientific collaboration. The examples of scientific collaboration policy discussed in the book are taken from the European Union, the United States, and China. Through a number of case studies the authors analyse the background, development and evaluation of these policies. This book will be of interest to researchers in diverse disciplines such as regional studies, scientometrics, R&D policy, socio-economic geography and network analysis. It will also be of interest to policymakers, and to managers of research organisations.

Abstract

Au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le processus d'internationalisation de la science s'accélère et le projet - déjà ancien - d'établir « un espace européen de la recherche » se précise. La science fait débat et désigne désormais, dans une conception qui s'élargit, un ensemble de systèmes de savoirs, de pratiques et de dispositifs institutionnels. Le contexte de la guerre froide et les pratiques et échanges scientifiques interagissent. La guerre froide entraîne des reconfigurations, entre les États-Unis et l'Europe notamment, sans stopper les circulations entre les blocs rivaux. Trois questions principales traversent cet ouvrage qui s'inscrit dans le champ des « Cold War Studies » : quelle est la place du chercheur dans le réseau des institutions scientifiques, des structures politiques et des flux financiers ? Comment les réseaux scientifiques se mettent-ils en place à l'intersection de la science et de la politique ? Quelles sont les modalités des circulations, transferts et échanges entre les différentes cultures scientifiques ?
