Inhaltsangabe

Explore how science and technology interact with development in changing economies. Learn why alliances between universities, industry, and governments shape progress—and the challenges they create.

In this analysis, readers glimpse the tensions that arise when the purpose of research meets the realities of underdeveloped nations. The text examines how researchers form partnerships across borders, and how national interests, industry needs, and academic ideals influence what gets funded and pursued. It also considers how different system models—such as bi-national institutes and visiting professors—shift power, shelter new ideas, and sometimes hinder long-term growth.

- Understand how the relationship between intellectual work and practical application can polarize institutions.
- See how external funding and political conditions affect research agendas and talent retention.
- Learn about different institutional arrangements designed to foster sustainable scientific capacity.
- Consider the evolving role of administrators in aligning research with national development goals.

Ideal for readers of science policy, development studies, and organizational innovation, this book offers a framework for assessing how to build lasting, world-ready research capacity in the face of competing interests.
