  • RESEARCH and DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT in the TRANSITION to a MARKET ECONOMY Serguei Glaziev and Christoph M
    RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT IN THE TRANSITION TO A MARKET ECONOMY Serguei Glaziev and Christoph M. Schneider Editors CP-93-001 April 1993 Collaborative Papers report work which has not been performed solely at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis and which has received only limited review. Views or opinions expressed herein do not necessarily represent those of the Institute, its National Member Organizations, or other organizations supporting the work. International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis o A-2361 Laxenburg Austria HllASA Telephone: +43 2236 715210 Telex: 079 137 iiasa a o Telefax: +43 2236 71313 Foreword Today, there is no more denying the significance attributed to research and development (R&D) as a component of modern economic growth. Though a neglected topic of economic study in the first half of this century, the increas- ing rapidity of technological change swayed the attention of both academics and policy-makers towards the role of R&D in enhancing social and eco- nomic welfare. In a market system, the externalities characteristic of R&D make its support more difficult than most goods in which the contrasting of private benefits with private costs approximates the well-being of society at large. Thus, the organization of R&D becomes a key issue in a transi- tion to a market system, particularly for the Russian Federation, which has inherited the majority of the scientific and technological resources after the demise of the Soviet Union. Members of the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) and, more specifically, the Economic Transition and Integration (ETI) Project recognized the importance of this matter and welcomed the proposal of then USSR Deputy Prime Minister Laverov to initiate collab- orative work with the USSR State Committee for Science and Technology and the USSR Academy of Sciences on the topic of Research and Devel- opment Management in the Transition to a Market Economy.
