Why Research Partnerships Really Matter
Methodological Issues in Science and Technology Policy Research
This paper discusses how best to conduct research on problems of science and technology (S&T) policy, with particular reference to African economic development in the context of the recent policy climate associated' with structural adjustment measures advocated by bodies such as the World Bank. It argues that since S&T policy is really concerned with the long-term structural evolution of economic systems, the methodological problems involved in s…
The critical servant
The critical rhetoric project at present lacks a strong understanding of the relationship between the critical rhetor and the audience. This essay suggests that the writings of Isocrates offer an example for and an extension of the critical rhetoric project. Isocrates's combination of critique and service urges rhetors to act as critical servants. By combining community history, critical possibilities, and rhetorical performance, the critical ser…
Coping with change, complexity and diversity in agriculture — the case of rhizobium inoculants in Thailand
Strategic planning of complex economic systems ∗
A major drawback of conventional models of the behavior of economic systems (and derived tools for policy intervention) is that the desire for tractability leads generally to a high degree of abstraction from reality. This article suggests an alternative, and arguably complementary, approach which engages specifically with economic complexity. The technique used is one of interactive spatial modelling over long time periods where the principle ec…
The evolution of information
Evolution, complex systems and technological change 1
A particularly weak area of mainstream economics is its theoretical capacity to handle structural economic change. And yet the advent of major new technologies, combined with the growing integration of the international economic system, has placed structural change high on the policy agenda. This paper suggests an alternative theoretical approach. By portraying economic systems as complex open systems it is possible to view their long-term evolut…

Science-based Industrialization in a Developiṅg Country
This paper represents an attempt to throw more light on the problems faced by developing countries in their efforts to industrialize, through an examination of the recent economic history of a particular case, the scientific instruments industry in India. Since many of these problems are connected with technological matters, particular attention is paid to the relations between 'science' and 'production', broadly defined, and to how these relatio…

The Economic Behaviour of Research Institutions in Developing Countries — Some Methodological Points
The capacity to make policy for the regulation and control of scientific and technological activities has recently begun to occupy the thoughts of decision- makers in many developing countries. An important aspect of this general problem is how to monitor and control the activities of research institutes so as to maximize their impact on social and economic development, which in turn implies the capability to assess, in a meaningful and efficient…
