European Union Research Policy (eBook, PDF)

Contested Origins

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book describes the emergence of research policy as a key competence of the European Union (EU). It shows how the European Community (EC, the predecessor of the EU), which initially had very limited legal competence in the field, progressively developed a solid policy framework presenting science and research as indispensable tools for European economic competitiveness and growth. This book conveys the contested history of one of the EU's most successful policies. It is a story of struggle and frustration but also of a great institutional and intellectual continuity. The ideational edifice for the EC/EU research policy that was put in place during the 1960s and 1970s proved remarkably robust. Its durability enabled the rapid take-off of the European Commission's initiatives in the more favorable political atmosphere of the early 1980s and the subsequent expansion of the EU research funding instruments and programs that permanently transformed the European research landscape.

Rezensionen

"Based on extensive archival research, Mitzner's book understandably gives priority to the three powerhouses of European science (France, Germany, and the UK) ... . Elegantly written and clearly structured, Mitzner's book is fundamental reading for all those interested in science diplomacy and in the history of European integration." (Francesco Cassata, ARO - Annali Rezensionen Online, Issue 6, January, 2023)
