Teie käes olev artiklikogumik on ajendatud aja­vahemikul 01.09.2018–31.10.2020 ellu viidud uurimisprojektist, mille keskmes on tervik­liku olukorrateadlikkuse võime loomine laiapindseks riigikaitseks1. Projekt kuulub RITA-programmi2 ning algatati Kaitseministeeriumi, Riigi­ kantselei ja Siseministeeriumi tellimusel. Projekti täitjaks valiti konsortsium, kuhu kuulusid Cybernetica AS, Tartu Ülikool, Tallinna Tehnikaülikool ja ­Kaitseväe Akadeemia. Nagu selliste rakendusteaduslike uurimis­projektide puhul tavaks, koostas konsortsium SA Eesti Teadusagentuuri esitatud pakkumis­kutsele vastamiseks uuringuettepaneku, mis sai nimeks Manticus Apollo. Manticus Apollo projekti täideti tihedas koostöös tellijaga ning selle eri etappidesse kaasati laiapindse riigikaitse valdkonnas tegutsevaid eksperte. Kuna tegemist oli RITA-programmi esimesse vooru kuuluva projektiga, ­pakkus selle elluviimine ohtralt õpikohti nii tellijale kui ka projekti täit­jatele. Tunnustada tuleb kõigi projektis osalenute – eksperdid, intervjueeritavad, sõjamängu korraldajad ja selles osalejad – pühendumist ja abivalmidust. See annab julgust loota, et tavapärasest keerukamad teadusprojektid, mis ­hõlmavad eri valdkondade praktikuid ja teadusdistsipliine, on võima­likud ka tulevikus. Siinsesse erinumbrisse valitud teemad koorusid välja Manticus Apollo projektist ning need võiksid huvi pakkuda kõigile riigikaitsest huvitatuile, kuid eelkõige teadlastele, ekspertidele ja õppuritele. Artiklite eesmärk on jagada projekti käigus saadud uusi teadmisi ja vaatenurki ning toetada aka­ deemilist debatti. Nii nagu Manticus Apollo projektis, on ka kogumikus esindatud autorid väga erinevatest teadusdistsipliinidest. Loodame, et lugeja jaoks on autorite pakutud erinev vaade laiapindsele riigikaitsele ja olukorra­ teadlikkusele põnev ning mõtteid ja edasist uurimist ärgitav. 1 Manticus Apollo (01.09.2018−31.10.2020). RITA 1/01-50. Projekti teostajad Cybernetica AS, Tallinna Tehnikaülikool, Tartu Ülikool, Kaitseväe Akadeemia. 2 RITA (tuletatud sõnadest riigi ja teadusarendus) on Euroopa Regionaalarengu Fondi kaudu toetatav programm, mille eesmärk on suurendada riigi rolli teaduse strateegilisel suunamisel ning teadus- ja arendusasutuste võimet ühiskondlikult oluliste uuringute tegemisel. Programmi kaudu rahastab SA Eesti Teadusagentuur Eesti riigi vajadustest lähtuvaid sotsiaal-majandusliku eesmärgiga rakendusuuringuid. Sõjateadlane (Estonian Journal of Military Studies), Volume 15, 2020, pp. 7–9. https://www.kvak.ee/sojateadlane/ 8 Kaide Tammel, Andres Saumets Kogumiku esimeses artiklis avab doktor Ivo Juurvee Eesti riigikaitse laia käsituseni jõudmise tagamaid. Kui rootslased kõnelevad oma süsteemi silmas pidades totaalkaitsest (ingl total defence) ja soomlased avarast julgeolekust (ingl comprehensive security)3, siis Ivo Juurvee artiklist selgub, et Eestis on aastate jooksul sarnase sisu tähistamiseks kasutatud erinevaid sõnakujusid, mille valik ei ole olnud süsteemne. Ivo Juurvee alustatud teema jätkuks analüüsib Manticus Apollo projekti terminoloog doktor Reet Hendrikson laiapindse riigikaitse terminoloogiaga seonduvat. Autor toob rohkelt näiteid Manticus Apollo projekti käigus esile kerkinud probleemkohtadest ning pakub lahendusi. Kuna laiapindne riigi­ kaitse eeldab eri valdkondade koostööd ning suutlikkust kiirelt olukorda hinnata ja reageerida, tuleb üksteisest parema arusaamise nimel teha järje­ pidevat tööd. Kas ja kuidas jätkub laiapindse riigikaitse

During about the quarter of the century that has elapsed after regaining independence, our scientific landscape has changed radically. The lion’s share of research work is integrated with providing university education. The targets for the following seven years were defined at the very start of the year, in the document adopted by Riigikogu (Parliament) on January 22, 2014 and entitled “Estonian research and development and innovation strategy 2014- 2020. Knowledge-based Estonia”. It starts with the acknowledgement familiar to all of us that the number and complexity of challenges faced by the society is ever increasing.

This has even become part of local folklore. Yet the conclusion drawn by many Estonians, including several prominent gures, that the Presi- dent is looking for one single product like Pippi Longstocking once looked for Spunk - is somewhat unexpected. As a matter of fact, the President of Estonia is not supposed to seek Estonia’s Nokia. I am seeking it for you. For those who are too lazy to do it themselves. However, it is every Estonian proprietor’s task to look for their own so-called Nokias, and nd at least six of them annually. The key factor to innovation is man. I have used this example of Nokia to draw attention to the product that Estonia does not make in large quantities - this is world-class labour force. A study loan taken with the intention to get proper education and training would consti- tute a safe investment in any case, for the borrowers will, sooner or later, rise to such high and well-paid positions that returning the loan is as easy as anything. Having adopted Western-type business culture and well functioning marketing mechanisms, it is now primarily in the eld of intellectual property that Estonia, in order to survive in the third round, needs to be able to create surplus value.

Research infrastructures can be single-sited (e.g., telescopes and synchrotrons), distributed (e.g., a networks of biobanks), and can have central/shared or virtual services (e.g., databases and archives) that end users can access from their workplace. Purpose of roadmap A roadmap is a long-term (with the perspective of 10–20 years) planning tool that contains a list of new research infrastructure units of national importance or those that require updating. The infrastructures included in the roadmap can be physical objects and network structures as well as memberships in international research infrastructure organisations. The roadmap is supplemented regularly (in a cycle of 3–4 years) in order to take changing needs and opportunities into account. Including a research infrastructure in the roadmap does not constitute a funding decision or list objects in priority order. Instead, it serves as input for future funding decisions. The list of objects of the Estonian Research Infrastructure Roadmap is approved as an updated annex to the implementation plan for 2016–2020 of the Estonian Research and Development and Innovation Strategy 2014–2020 Knowledge-based Estonia with the order of the Government of the Republic No.

It was financed under the European Union’s Phare Programme (Support to Euro- pean Integration Process in Estonia, N°ES 9620.01.01). The evaluator, Hannu Hernesniemi, is working as a Research Director of Etlatieto Ltd. The evaluation was finalised 10th of Mach, 2000, and describes the situation at this time.

Discussion Papers, Keskusteluaiheita, ISSN 0781-6847; No. 722. ABSTRACT: In this report the Estonian national innovation system (NIS) and especially the ef- fectiveness of technology policy and the functioning of policy organisations is evaluated. The national innovation system is a set of institutions, which jointly and individually contribute to the development and diffusion of new technologies and provide the framework for the technol- ogy policy of a nation. Estonian research and technology development (RTD) investments are very low in international comparison. RTD expenditure is only 0.5 percent of GDP. This is one quarter of that of the European Union and OECD countries. In particular, there is a lack of private technology devel- opment investments. Primary focus of the public investment is on basic research and on those fields of science that are not connected to industries.

  • Evaluation Report
    Evaluation report Evaluated point Grade Comments The University of Tartu (TU) offers a large scientific spectrum in natural sciences, partly due to the fact that it is historically the first university in Estonia, and partly due to the needs in teaching. The scientific impact of the research is very good, and excellent in many cases. An excellent example is the Estonian Genome Center, where DNA analysis is used to track new diseases. This has been highly recognized by the creation of the Centre of Excellence for “Genomics and Translational Medicine”. Excellence is also evident in the other CoE’s, for example in “Advanced Materials and High-technology Devices for Sustainable Energetics, Sensorics and Nanoelectronics“, and there is also excellent research in a range of other institutes. The TU plays an important role for fundamental disciplines such as physics and mathematics by proposing a complete curriculum and having trained a large part of the corresponding scientific community. The institute of Scientific impact Very good mathematics and statistics has sufficient expertise and size of research to gradually interact more with other scientists. Other areas that should be mentioned are cell biology, bioinformatics, mostly in relation with the genome analysis, geology and Earth resources and the chemistry of super acids. Among the positive developments over the reporting period is the growth in Computer Science. The department has been successful in attracting talent from abroad which is notable. While student numbers are in decline in Estonia, computer science has bucked the trend. Science and Technology is the biggest Faculty with ~42 % of the university’s academic staff.
