  • Science and Technology Policy Reforms in China - a Critical Assessment
    Science and Technology Policy Reforms in China - A Critical Assessment ERIK BAARK and LIU SUYING The last decade has been a period of stock-taking and new adventures for Chinese policies regarding science and technology. After the new leader- ship had established itself in the late 1970s, and it looked back on the achievements and the mistakes of previous years, there was a strong feel- ing of frustration with the fact that levels of technology in China continued to lag behind advanced countries. To inject vitality into what seemed to be a dormant, but potentially powerful, science and technology (S&T)system required reforms which, in many respects, were more radical than any- thing of the past. We have witnessed a process where the results of research appeared for sale on a market, where scientists became engaged as ))moonlightingcccon- sultants, and where private research units have become fashionable. At the same time, however, these reforms have provided fascinating insights into the structural barriers which exist for technological innovation in modern Chinese society. In many respects, the exposure of such barriers provides crucial clues to the formulation of better S&T policies in China. With this paper we hope to contribute to a critical assessment of the re- forms. We are concerned with the political support of the S&T policy re- forms. The S&T system established after 1949 on the basis of a Soviet model appears to have recovered quickly after the alledgedly shattering onslaughts of ideological anti-intellectualism during the Cultural Revolu- tion. The scientists had barely drawn a sigh of relief before new, ))market- orientedc forces were let loose on them in the 1980s.

  • Honorary Doctor of Science Prof ZHOU Guangzhao
    Honorary Doctor of Science Prof ZHOU Guangzhao Chairman: Our first guest is a renowned physicist and a former President of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Born in Changsha, Hunan Province, Prof Zhou Guangzhao read physics at Tsinghua University in Beijing, and then went on to Peking University for his graduate studies. Having taught at Peking University as a lecturer in physics for three years, he went to Moscow as a researcher at Dubra Joint Nuclear Research Institute in the former Soviet Union in 1957. During his stay in the Soviet Union, he began to publish articles in professional journals that won him international recognition. Upon his return to China in 1961, he was in charge of the Theoretical Department of the Nuclear Weapon Research Institute under the Ministry of Nuclear Industry. His research on the application of nuclear energy produced many significant results that contributed to the design and theoretical study of nuclear weapons and laid the ground work for the successful production of China’s first atomic and hydrogen bombs. In 1964, he was appointed Director of Nuclear Weapon Research Institute and then the Chief Engineer of the Ninth Bureau of China’s Ministry of Nuclear Industry. In 1982, Prof Zhou received the highest National Award for Natural Sciences in recognition of his pioneer work and important contributions in developing China’s nuclear weapons. In 1979, Prof Zhou became a fellow of the Institute of Theoretical Physics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He was invited to visit the Virginia Polytechnic Institute in the United States in 1980 and the Centre for Nuclear Research in Europe in 1981.

  • AROUND PERELMAN's PROOF of the POINCARÉ CONJECTURE S. Finashin After 3 Years of Thorough Inspection, Perelman's Proof of Th
    AROUND PERELMAN'S PROOF OF THE POINCARE¶ CONJECTURE S. Finashin Abstract. Certain life principles of Perelman may look unusual, as it often happens with outstanding people. But his rejection of the Fields medal seems natural in the context of various activities followed his breakthrough in mathematics. Cet animal est tr`esm¶echant, quand on l'attaque, il se d¶efend. Folklore After 3 years of thorough inspection, Perelman's proof of the Poincar¶eConjecture was ¯nally recognized by the consensus of experts. Three groups of researchers not only veri¯ed its details, but also published their own expositions, clarifying the proofs in several hundreds of pages, on the level \available to graduate students". The solution of the Poincar¶eConjecture was the central event discussed in the International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid, in August 2006 (ICM-2006), which gave to it a flavor of a historical congress. Additional attention to the personality of Perelman was attracted by his rejec- tion of the Fields medal. Some other of his decisions are also non-conventional and tradition-breaking, for example Perelman's refusal to submit his works to journals. Many people ¯nd these decisions strange, but I ¯nd them logical and would rather criticize certain bad traditions in the modern organization of science. One such tradition is a kind of tolerance to unfair credit for mathematical results. Another big problem is the journals, which are often transforming into certain clubs closed for aliens, or into pro¯table businesses, enjoying the free work of many mathemati- cians. Sometimes the role of the \organizers of science" in mathematics also raises questions.
