Abstract:
Science and technology innovation (STI) policy is a strategic principle to guide the whole cause of STI. The study on STI policy and its effect is particularly important. Most of the existing studies on the effect of STI policy focus on the effect of a single policy, and the studies on the effect of policy combination and its differences need to be further enriched and improved. This study proposes a method combining system simulation experiment and analysis of variance (ANOVA) to study the differences of combination effects of STI policies. The results show that there are significant effect differences in the combination of STI policies as a whole, but when it comes to different combinations of STI policies, not all policy combinations have significant differences. This study not only points out whether there are significant differences in a certain effect among which combinations of STI policies but also points out whether there are significant differences in all effects among which combinations of STI policies at the same time. This study has theoretical and practical significance for realizing scientific policy-making and sustainable development.

Abstract:
Abstract The recent orientation toward societal challenges in Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI) policies has exposed the limitations of contemporary governance to deal with these endeavors. For this reason, it has been urged a shift toward the so-called ‘transformative change’ approach, drawn from socio-technical transitions literature. This research suggests that this approach can be considered an emerging policy paradigm, and studies the implications of its adoption in STI policy. For doing so, we developed a conceptual framework based on policy sciences and STI policy literature, and used to study a policy resembling this societal challenge orientation: the Dutch smart mobility policy. Our case study suggests that the transformative change approach can be considered a new paradigm in STI policy, as novel theories, approaches, and mechanisms are being used to govern this policy. This research contributes to a better understanding of transformative approaches, by empirically looking the changing role of governance in societal challenge-led STI policies.

Abstract:
The subject of the study: mission-oriented policy in the field of science, technology and innovation, to achieve the SDGs in Ukraine. Purpose: defining the STI policy missions (priority directions) to respond to societal challenges and SDGs; developing the roadmaps for STI policy missions as a tool ensuring their coordination with strategic documents’ measures regarding the SDGs achieving. Methods: policy analysis, foresight research, statistical and scientific-metric analysis, business and information analytics. Results of the work: The objectives of six policy missions in the STI field were determined based on the foresight study, analysis of challenges, scientific and technological potential and stakeholder consultations. For the first time, six STI for SDGs roadmaps were developed for six concrete missions according to a single structure, which includes the situation and trends analysis in the relative sectors, scientific and technological and entrepreneurial potential, the key strategic documents’ measures for the SDGs implementation. The road map content has been agreed with 17 interested authorities. A comprehensive STI for SDGs roadmap has been developed as a toolkit for coordinating regulatory, organizational and financial measures regarding SDGs in Ukrainian strategic documents with the STI policy tools. The research results are the basis for determining the priority directions for the development of science and innovative activities for 2023, approved by the resolutions of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 283 of March 30, 2023 and No. 463 of May 9, 2023. Scope of application of the results: legal regulation in the STI field, transformational innovation policy. Conclusions. Defining the tasks of six policy missions in the field of STI to respond to national challenges and SDGs allowed for a more thorough analysis of the problems and risks of not achieving the SDGs and their relations with the strategic policy planning in the relevant sectors. The mission-oriented STI for SDGs road map becomes a more effective tool for coordinating the priority directions (missions) of the STI policy with measures for their implementation in strategic development documents. Further research will be aimed at strengthening the roadmap’ coordinating role during the implementation of STI policy measures and tools in the sectors of the national economy, as well as developing the appropriate indicators for monitoring and evaluating the progress in the STI for SDGs roadmap implementation.

Abstract:
Science, technology, and Innovation (STI) have been the cornerstone of China’s Reform and Opening-up processes. Employing a hybrid methodology, including textual analysis, this paper asserts that four decades of reform and opening-up have witnessed STI’s pivotal role across sectors despite numerous challengesб such as economic slowdown, growing disparities, environmental issues, and a huge burden on the state-owned enterprises. China’s substantial investments in the Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies, including Artificial Intelligence and New Energy Vehicles, exemplify its commitment to innovation, reflected in over 2.5% of GDP allocated for research and development in 2022. This robust investment has bolstered China’s innovative capabilities and brought about its high ranking on the Global Innovation Index. In Chinese STI politics and policy-making, the programs like MLP-2006, SEI-2010 and Made in China 2025 have created a watershed moment. Three central research questions guide our exploration: the trajectory of policy framing on STI-Driven development, the theoretical underpinnings of Innovation-Driven Development and Green Development in Chinese STI politics, and the significance of these paradigms in China’s context. This paper also hypothesizes the emergence of two distinct trajectories within China’s STI politics through the adoption of Innovation-Driven Development and Green Development, positioning STI at the core of China’s development paradigm. The study thoroughly dissects China’s official discourse, framing these paradigms within the Sustainable Development context and highlighting their crucial roles in China’s journey toward technological advancement and sustainability. The analysis of the evolution of China’s STI policy as portrayed in official discourse offers insights into the strategic role played by science, technology, and Innovation in moulding China’s socio-economic trajectory alongside global implications stemming from its transformative development agenda.

Abstract:
This paper looks into the determinants of national innovation performance from the perspective of policy regime and establishes a theoretical model on how a country’s dual Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI) policy regimes, democratic and meritocratic, and national absorptive capacity (NAC) jointly determine its national innovation performance. A democratic STI policy regime promotes innovation through channels of freedom, social equality, and public participation. A meritocratic STI policy regime promotes innovation through channels of good governance and rational policymaking. The model further proposes that the relationships between STI policy regimes and national innovation performance are moderated by potential NAC (PNAC) and realized NAC (RNAC) in opposing directions. The fixed-effects panel regression of OECD countries confirms that both democratic and meritocratic STI policy regimes have positive effects on national innovation performance. Moreover, the democratic effect is positively moderated by PNAC but negatively moderated by RNAC. In contrast, the meritocratic effect is positively moderated by RNAC but negatively moderated by PNAC. The major contribution of this paper is to highlight the importance of a country’s STI policy regimes as the bedrock and NAC as the leverage to generate more homegrown innovations.

Abstract:
Educational policy is a fundamental document that guides the smooth running of any educational programme. If not properly planned, prepared and implemented, such education programme can be run haphazardly without any beneficial outcome. Any policy document that cannot be applied in any educational programme may be described as inadequate. A science or technology based policy should not consider only the advanced level technology in Nigeria but also integrate the lower or indigenous level technology; hence STI policy should not neglect the TVET indigenous technologies since TVET is seen as programme to promote skill acquisition for indigenous and advanced technology in any nation. This study, therefore, investigated the place of TVET programmes in STI policy in Nigeria. The study determined that the place of TVET in STI policy may be described as illusion, mirage or not comprehensive to the public because the policy formulation and implementation appears to neglect the adoption of low level indigenous TVET technologies in Nigeria which an average Nigerian benefits from. Theories and philosophical dicta were presented with respect to policy advocacy for TVET programmes in Nigeria. The place of TVET in STI policy is undefined in Nigeria, hence the need to properly integrate TVET section in STI policy or formulate an independent TVET policy. It is, therefore, recommended that applicable societal values in technology should be considered in STI policy for the realization of the Nigerian vision 20:2020. The STI policy making and implementation process should embrace 90% of the experts in the fields of science, technology, technical and engineering education, else the need for alternative policy for TVET programmes in Nigeria. Key words: technical and vocational education and training, science, technology and innovation Policy, indigenous technology, policy reform.

Abstract:
The timing of science, technology, and innovation (STI) policy initiatives is critical to the outcomes that they produce. This study examines the advantages and disadvantages of enacting STI policy investments early in a nascent domain of activity. Building on work across multiple disciplines, we propose a framework to better understand the temporal dynamics of STI policy. An examination of data on nanotechnology STI policy around the world shows that the timing and funding size is related to entrepreneurship and innovation in different ways. The findings reveal that countries that started funding national STI programs in nanotechnology later had a lower proportion of the total nanotechnology firms, patents, and publications in the world, which suggests some first-mover advantages to STI policy. However, this is only part of the story. Countries that had large programs after the technology had gained legitimacy had the opposite situation such that there was a higher proportion of the total nanotechnology firms, patents, and publication in the world and more nanotechnology-related patents per capita and firms relative to other firms in the country explicating some of the complexity of policy timing. We discuss how temporal considerations influence both the theory and practice of building systems of innovation.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore and discuss possible future pathways of the Finnish science, technology and innovation (STI) system. The paper sketches three speculative pathways for the Finnish STI system. Design/methodology/approach Theoretical considerations behind the pathways are based on analyses of the determinants and behaviour of small open economies, their innovation systems and governance. The empirical background of the paper is in the current trends of the Finnish economy and STI system. The analysis of pathways is based on three dimensions: institutionalized policy environment and economy, domestic interest groups and policy and STI institutions and funding. Changes in these dimensions are analysed by paying special attention to two variables: the position of the nation state and the general economic development. Findings The first future pathway outlined is based on an optimistic view by setting Finland on the basis of past success factors as an European and global STI hotspot. The second pathway is based on the assumption that the Finnish STI system will be increasingly subordinated to international structures and decision-making. The third one is geared around the assumption that the Finnish STI system will be dominated by industries. Research limitations/implications While Finland has been seen as a European showpiece of innovation since the early 2000s, currently the country’s national economy and STI system are undergoing a critical period. The paper sheds light on this transformation and its potential future outcomes and attempts to raise debate on the options policy makers may face in the increasingly complex global environment in small countries. Originality/value The paper introduces potential future avenues for the Finnish STI system and provides a contribution to the debate of the future of small countries’ STI systems and innovation policies by emphasising the limited space of the STI policy choices and how the development paths and space for policy making evolve from the interaction of socio-economic factors between domestic and wider international context.

Abstract:
The Sustainable Development Goals 2030 (SDG 4 and 5) provide for the attainment of quality education for all, including women. Africa Agenda 2063, Uganda Vision 2040, the Third National Development Plan (NDP III) similarly all provide unequivocal reiterations on the need for the provision of quality inclusive education that will drive national socio-economic transformation. This is particularly envisioned through a robust science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education that fosters relevant science, technology and innovation (STI) knowledge, skills, values, attitudes and competences to constitute the epicentre of the transformation. Promoting the achievement of women in equal measure to men in STEM and STI is critical to the socio-economic transformation agenda. However, there exist gaps in the policy framework and the implementation of STEM education that undermine STI educational achievement, especially for women. This conceptual paper is aimed at examining the fragility of legal and policy frameworks for STEM/STI education and the strategies for enhancing STI educational achievement for females in the Ugandan context. We argue that strengthening the policy implementation of gender-responsive STEM/STI education is a precursor of socio-economic transformation of nations and the entire world. The paper adopts a semi-systematic literature review methodology to examine legal and policy documents for strengths, flaws and implementation gaps with the aim of recommending strategies for enhancing STEM/STI educational achievement for females in Uganda.

No Estado da Bahia, o incentivo à competitividade das empresas nascentes por meio da implantação das incubadoras de empresas surgiu em 1993, mas, vinte e um anos depois, não existem indícios que demonstrem que este apoio foi continuado ou que consolidou tais organizações no âmbito do Sistema Local de Inovação baiano. Por este motivo, a pesquisa teve o propósito de investigar, sob a ótica dos objetivos previstos pelas Políticas de C, T & I Nacional e Estadual e aqueles delineados pelos editais da FAPESB, o desempenho das seis incubadoras de empresas selecionadas pelo Programa Empreende Bahia. Para tanto, no marco teórico da pesquisa são apresentados os conceitos - Inovação, Sistemas Locais de Inovação e Empreendedorismo - que embasaram a construção da “nova” Política Pública de C, T & I. A dissertação também descreve a origem da política de C, T & I no Brasil, apresentando a sua trajetória, principais motivações e o destaque para o debate sobre a tipologia da política que tem sido difundida como orientada pelo “modelo sistêmico”, mas que ainda persistem instrumentais do “modelo linear”. Esta discussão foi importante para apresentar, em sequência, a política de C, T & I do Estado da Bahia e, por conseguinte, discorrer sobre o Programa Empreende Bahia que nasceu no âmbito da FAPESB e resultou no apoio às seis incubadoras de empresas baianas selecionadas pelo estudo. O desempenho destas incubadoras de empresas é apresentado a partir da análise dos seus relatórios técnicos e os questionários submetidos aos gestores destas organizações. Dentre os resultados apresentados pelas incubadoras de empresas baianas, destaca-se que estes atores não têm empreendido de maneira relevante iniciativas interativas e/ou colaborativas com outros atores do sistema local de inovação da Bahia. More and more, micro and small businesses need support to shape the competitive and dynamic environments of the current economy. Thence, incubators have emerged as an alternative to support nascent ventures, with regard to their management and development of products / services / processes challenges that have innovative or technological nature, the so-called technology-based companies. In the State of Bahia, the incentive of the competitiveness of emerging companies through the implementation of incubators started in 1993, but twenty-one years later, there is no evidence showing that this support was continued or that consolidated such organizations under the Local Innovation System of Bahia. Thence, this research aimed to investigate, from the perspective of the objectives established by the National and State Policies of Science, Technology & Innovation (STI) and those outlined by the edicts of FAPESB, the performance of the six incubators selected by the program Empreende Bahia. For both, in the theoretical framework of the study are presented the concepts - Innovation, Local Innovation System and Entrepreneurship - that supported the construction of the "new" Public Policy of STI. The dissertation also describes the origin of the policy of STI in Brazil, with its trajectory, main motivations, and the highlight to the debate on the type of policy that is being propagated as guided by "systemic model", but that still persist instrumental of the "linear model". This discussion was important to present, in sequence, the policy of STI of the State of Bahia and, therefore, discuss the program Empreende Bahia that was born under FAPESB and resulted in supporting incubators at six companies from Bahia selected for the study. The performance of these incubators is presented based on an analysis of their technical reports and questionnaires submitted to the managers of these organizations. Among the results presented by incubator companies from Bahia, it is emphasized that these actors have not undertaken a relevant way interactive and/or collaborative with other actors of the local innovation system of Bahia initiatives.

Full text
Abstract:
Interest of STI policies to influence the innovation behaviour of firms has been increased considerably. This gives rise to the notion of behavioural additionality, broadening traditional evaluation concepts of input and output additionality. Though there is empirical work measuring behavioural additionalities, we know little about what role distinct firm characteristics play for their occurrence. The objective is to estimate how distinct firm characteristics influence the realisation of behavioural additionalities. We use survey data on 155 firms, considering the behavioural additionalities stimulated by the Austrian R&D funding scheme in the field of intelligent transport systems in 2006. We focus on three different forms of behavioural additionality project additionality, scale additionality and cooperation additionality and employ binary regression models to address this question. Results indicate that R&D related firm characteristics significantly affect the realisation of behavioural additionality. Firms with a high level of R&D resources are less likely to substantiate behavioural additionalities, while small, young and technologically specialised firms more likely realise behavioural additionalities. From a policy perspective, this indicates that direct R&D promotion of firms with high R&D resources may be misallocated, while attention of public support should be shifted to smaller, technologically specialised firms with lower R&D experience.

Abstract:
This thesis consists of four self-contained essays on policy rules and macroeconomic behaviour of an emerging market economy, in addition to the introductory first chapter. It examines monetary and fiscal policy performance, develops a small open-economy dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model and investigates welfare-maximising optimal monetary rules, with reference to the Sri Lankan economy. The second chapter empirically characterises the monetary policy of Sri Lanka using alternative policy reaction functions. The estimation results suggest that the Taylor rule captures the monetary policy reaction characteristics in Sri Lanka more closely than the McCallum rule. The results further implies that the Central Bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL) follows a contemporaneous or backward-looking rule instead of a forward-looking monetary policy rule. The results indicate that the CBSL responds to inflation fairly strongly while stabilising output aggressively. It is also found that the CBSL smoothes out policy action strongly. This suggests that the CBSL implements policy gradually in small steps in the desired direction, without making immediate sharp changes. The third chapter investigates the fiscal policy performance of Sri Lanka in the period subsequent to the implementation of numerical fiscal targets in 2003. It estimates alternative fiscal policy rules widely used in literature including tax difference rules, primary balance rules and Taylor-type fiscal rules for Sri Lanka. I find that the fiscal authority contemporaneously responds to changes in output gap and government expenditure moderately, by changing the tax rate. Moreover, it implies that the fiscal policy in Sri Lanka is procyclical rather than countercyclical. The fourth chapter develops a New Keynesian (NK) small open-economy (SOE) dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model. This study is different from most of the other available SOE studies, as it includes an explicit fiscal sector in the model. The model is estimated for Sri Lanka using Bayesian techniques. The dynamics of the model in response to different shocks are examined to understand the relative importance of the business cycle drivers. The properties of the estimated rules are analysed to identify the policy reaction behaviour of the monetary and fiscal authorities. The estimation results suggest that over the sample period, the CBSL conducted moderately strong anti-inflationary monetary policy while paying substantial attention to output stabilisation, however, with negligibly small concerns for exchange rate movements. The findings suggest a high degree of interest rate persistence as well. The findings further imply that the fiscal authority of Sri Lanka changes its policy instrument, the tax rate, only moderately in response to changes in debt level, government expenditure or output. The fifth chapter computes welfare-maximising optimal monetary policy rules for Sri Lanka based on a slightly simplified variant of the DSGE model discussed in the fourth chapter. I calculate second-order accurate solutions to the model, which facilitate welfare computation across various policy rules. I determine optimal monetary policy rules such that the welfare associated with them is as close as possible to the Ramsey optimal allocation. The welfare cost of adopting alternative rules, instead of the optimal, is determined to evaluate the relative importance of the different policy rules. There are several key findings. First, the optimal monetary policy rule suggests an aggressive response to inflation and a moderate response to output-gap. Second, the optimal policy advocates a muted response to exchange rate fluctuations. Third, the welfare gains from interest rate smoothing are significant. Finally, the welfare losses associated with the current realised monetary policy rule for Sri Lanka can be mitigated significantly by responding to inflation more strongly. Finally, the sixth chapter summarises the key findings and concludes the thesis.

This thesis focuses on an appropriate national climate change adaptation policy for Sri Lanka. An extensive multidisciplinary literature review guides the thesis in defining ‘appropriate’ climate change adaptation, and in determining a developmental paradigm on which an adaptation policy could be based. The thesis also sets out a policy process framework for developing an appropriate adaptation policy. The thesis draws on a wide array of literature and on policy actor understandings of adaptation policy content and processes, in order to build a theoretical basis for an appropriate climate change adaptation policy. A series of semi-structured in-depth interviews, carried out in Sri Lanka, were used as the primary source of empirical data. Together with these, review of a broad range of policy documents, budgetary information and status reports, helped provide rigour to the analysis.

Abstract:
Sri Lanka's trade regime has been gradually liberalized over the last two decades with the aim of deeper integration into the global economy. The purpose of this study is to present a quantitative assessment of the impacts of major unilateral, regional and multilateral trade liberalization on Sri Lanka, and rank the trade policy options in terms of their welfare effects. This study contributes to the empirical literature on trade liberalization. The Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) model is used to analyze the welfare effects of trade liberalization in a multi-country, multi-sector general equilibrium framework. The results show that if Sri Lanka implements the South Asian Free Trade Agreement (SAFTA), while maintaining 15 percent external tariffs for the rest of the world, this combined policy would provide the highest welfare gain to Sri Lanka. The SAFTA by its own would provide the second-highest ranked gain from the trade reforms due to the benefits of preferential access to the large SAARC market. The third-highest ranked policy option comes under the unilateral reduction of import tariffs to 15 percent scenario. As results indicate, the Indo-Lanka Free Trade Agreement (ILFTA) offers the fourth-highest policy option for Sri Lanka. Finally, the phasing-out of MFA on Textiles and Clothing under the Uruguay Round Agreement, rank as the fifth-highest policy option for Sri Lanka. Thus, regional trade liberalization is far more preferable to unilateral and multilateral liberalization. However, as the GTAP model permits, these rankings based on only to the static welfare gains, ignoring the dynamic effect of trade liberalization. In addition, the gravity model has been employed to examine the determinants of Sri Lanka's bilateral trade flows with her selected trading partners, in order to sort out the influence of geographical proximity versus preferential trading policies in creating a regional concentration in trade. Our results confirm the validity of geographical factors such as proximity and cultural familiarity, as determinants of Sri Lanka's trade with neighbouring countries. They suggest that the selected trading partners are “natural trading partners” of Sri Lanka.<br>Subscription resource available via Digital Dissertations only.

Abstract:
This thesis evaluates the policy intentions, practices and effects of two different types of School-Based Management (SBM) initiatives in Sri Lanka: the Programme for School Improvement (PSI) and the Child-Friendly Schools Initiative (CFSI). Moreover, it examines the similarities and differences between these two initiatives and, when they co-exist in the same school, the ways in which schools have integrated them. PSI is the national SBM initiative of Sri Lanka introduced to the schools during 2006-2011 following a prolonged process of designing and consensus building which started in the 1990s. Running parallel to PSI, the CFSI - a rights-based approach to education which also has SBM features - is being implemented in selected primary schools. The policy discourse of SBM/PSI focused on the proposition that schools should be empowered to meet the expectations of their communities and that the administrative decentralisation which had shifted power from national to provincial levels was not addressing adequately disparities between schools. At the same time, there was scepticism as to whether SBM would be able to address the issues of a heterogeneous school system. CFSI was introduced by UNICEF in response to the government's request to strengthen disadvantaged schools. The policy intentions of these two initiatives were investigated through interviews with key policy officials and with the representatives of development partner agencies who assisted PSI and CFSI. The influences of the policy-intents of PSI and CFSI on organisational practices, their effects, similarities, differences and complementarities were explored through six school case studies and experiences of the principals, teachers and parents. The thesis reveals that PSI is expected to empower schools with autonomy for making collaborative decisions, create a sense of ownership among the school community and permit improvement of schools. CFSI is intended to promote inclusiveness, child-centredness and democratic participation. They are both, in principle, guided by the concerns for ensuring equitable opportunities for all to learn, improving the quality of education which is judged by student learning outcomes and improving efficiency in resource allocation and use. At the school level, each case-study school has forged collaboration between school-parent-community and ensured democracy in decision-making. School-based decision-making is promoted by PSI through a set of Ministry guidelines and by CFSI through a participatory approach recommended by UNICEF and the Ministry, but having less official ‘force' than PSI. Both initiatives have influenced to increase parents' contribution in the school physical infrastructure development and in the educational projects. School-based planning has been promoted by both initiatives, and in some cases has resulted in the production of two separate plans. Some schools have combined these plans in accordance with the thematic structure of national Education Sector Development Framework. These initiatives have involved principals and teachers in decision-making, planning and implementation of programmes in collaboration with the community. The emphasis given to school-based teacher development is, however inadequate. Nonetheless, the increases in attendance and retention was influenced by CFSI rather than PSI, while both initiatives have had a positive influence by improving student learning and performance through various interventions at school and learning at home. The several ways in which these initiatives are integrated by schools, ensuring that each contributes towards filling the gaps left by the other are described. Considering their complementarities, the positive features of management in PSI and rights-based approach to education in CFSI in a rational manner, the author recommends an integrated ‘Learner-Friendly School-Based Management Model' which will effectively address learners' needs. It also recommends a methodology to pilot this model in Sri Lanka, thus putting the new knowledge produced by this research into practice.

Abstract:
AbstractScience, technology, and innovation (STI) policy experienced far-reaching changes with regard to both political aims and the underlying rationales. Drawing on the concept of policy paradigms, we analyse the factors that shaped the dynamics of STI policy since the first post-war decades in the OECD world. Next to changes in the context conditions, the chapter focuses primarily on endogenous phenomena related to changes of the conceptual understanding of knowledge generation and innovation, of the main STI policy objectives, and of preferred policy solutions. Of particular interest is the role of scientific expertise in these processes of policy change. The first of the three STI policy paradigms identified is characterised by its emphasis on addressing market failures in processes of knowledge generation. The second paradigm shares key objectives of the first, but is based on the systems of innovation heuristic, aiming to improve system performance. The third paradigm supplements the primarily economic rationales of the previous paradigms with the objective of addressing societal challenges. In view of the conclusion that scientific contributions and policy advice were less influential in the second paradigm shift than during the first, we develop suggestions for a future-oriented research agenda for STI policy research.

Abstract:
The author provides the definition for the state system of sci-tech information (SSTI, GSNTI) as a key component of developing information society in this country. SSTI (GSNTI) is the web of sci-tech libraries and information organizations – legal entities of every form of ownership and affiliation specializing in acquiring and processing of scientific and technical information and interacting based on the incurred system liabilities. Today, this country has kept several parameters and structure of the national system of sci-tech information (STI) as they had shaped in the late 20-th century. The author argues that the radical transformation (in fact, building a new SSTI model) is needed to form the national system of sci-tech information (NSSTI). The sci-tech libraries are to play the leading role in developing the single information space and new NSSTI. There is an urgent need to update the SSTI and STL in the Russian Federation. In Russia, the favorable environment has been formed to promote modern transformation of library information systems and technologies grounded in the explicit positioning of the state policy; the author refers to the corresponding documents and legal acts. The author concludes that the sci-tech libraries and STI system make an instrument to update the information infrastructure of science and education, and the society, on the whole.

Abstract:
Scientific evaluation in China is going through a transition period. In dealing with the misuse and alienation of quantitative indicators, China had initiated a top-down reform. To help better understand the scientific evaluation policy in China and provide reference for further reform, this study investigated the evolution and characteristics of scientific evaluation in China from a bibliometric perspective. In total, 343 policy documents from 1978 to 2021 were collected. Based on the temporal distribution of policy documents and timeline of landmark policy documents, four phases were identified. Text mining technique and social network analysis were used to identify the shift of policy focus over different phases. The four phases were characterized from three aspects: (1) The time span and number of relevant policy documents; (2) The focus of policy document content; and (3) The collaborative network of ministries that release the policy documents.

Abstract:
A key goal of public policy and public administration research is to inform policy decisions. It is not clear, however, to what extent this is the case. In this study, therefore, citations from policy documents to public policy and administration research were analyzed to identify which research contributed most to policy reports and decisions. Additionally, we identified which policy institutions used research literature more than others to justify their policy decisions. Our findings show that think tanks use public policy and administration research literature more often than governmental organizations when justifying policy reports and decisions.

Abstract:
Policy documents are one of the altmetric sources most crucial for comprehending the interaction between science and policy. In policy documents, the source is usually the institution or organization that published the given policy document. In this study we compare the policy document sources indexed by Altmetric.com and Overton. Altmetric.com is an altmetric aggregator that has been around for over a decade. Overton is a newer database aiming at being the most complete collection of international policy documents. Our findings reveal that Overton covered more policy organizations than Altmetric.com, although the overlap in sources is quite small. This low overlap may suggest that both data aggregators may be using slightly different operationalizations of their notion of “policy documents”, which calls for more transparency on what notion of policy documents and policy organizations are considered by them. Regarding policy organizations indexed by both data aggregators, most policy documents are published by government and non-profit organizations. Future research should delve more into the different policy organizations that are being covered in Overton and Altmetric.com, as well as their geographical distribution.

Explorative analyses reveal distinct sector differences in media mentions and policy citations, with academics from Medical – and Social sciences being the most visible. A small minority of mostly male academics featured very frequently in media and policy, but not in both domains simultaneously. Moreover, academics featured in the media seem are not necessarily quoted more in policy and vice versa.

Abstract:
The increasing importance of social media metrics, such as altmetrics, in evaluating the social impact of research and as a source of data for scholarly research has raised concerns about their representativeness with respect to the academic community. This paper addresses this issue by investigating the adoption of LinkedIn among a representative sample of over 12,000 UK academics, using both Scopus publication data and LinkedIn data. The paper offers two main contributions. Firstly, it identifies the types of researchers visible on LinkedIn, providing valuable insights into the profiles of academics who use this platform. Secondly, it enhances our understanding of the usefulness of LinkedIn as a data source and measure for science and innovation studies. Overall, this paper provides significant insights into the use of LinkedIn by academics and its potential as a data source for research evaluation and scholarly studies.

Full text
Abstract:
In recent years, mission-oriented approaches have received growing interest in science, technology and innovation (STI) policies against the background of two developments. First, while so-called “horizontal” or “generic” approaches to research, technology and innovation policies have largely been successful in improving the general innovation performance or the rate of innovation, there are perceived limitations in terms of insufficiently addressing the direction of technological change and innovation. Second, “grand societal challenges” emerged on policy agendas, such as climate change, security, food and energy supply or ageing populations, which call for thematic orientation and the targeting of research and innovation efforts. In addition, the apparent success of some mission-oriented initiatives in countries like China, South Korea, and the United States in boosting technological development for purposes of strengthening competitiveness contributed to boosting the interest in targeted and directional government interventions in STI. Against the backdrop of this renewed interest in mission-oriented STI policy, the OECD has addressed the growing importance of this topic and launched a project looking into current experiences with Mission-Oriented Innovation Policy (MOIP). The present study on MOIP in Austria was commissioned by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Climate Action, Energy, Mobility, Environment, Innovation and Technologiy (BMK) and comprises the Austrian contributions to this OECD project. The study aims at contributing Austrian experiences to the international debate and to stimulate a national debate on MOIP.

Obeysekara, Prajapali. Does the environmental licensing policy framework in Sri Lanka adequately address the challenges posed by offshore wind energy projects in the country? University of Dundee, 2025. https://doi.org/10.20933/100001372.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper aims to examine Sri Lanka's environmental licensing system and assess its adequacy for the successful development of offshore wind projects. Sri Lanka has been recognized as an ideal location for offshore renewable energy projects, particularly offshore wind, due to its geographic characteristics as an island with consistent 24-hour wind conditions. This article explores the factors contributing to Sri Lanka's suitability for offshore wind energy and evaluates the current environmental licensing procedures in place. Additionally, it draws on past experiences where inadequate environmental impact assessments led to human rights violations, highlighting the need for robust regulatory frameworks. Given the significant financial investments involved in offshore wind farm projects, identifying regulatory shortcomings is crucial. This paper advocates for adopting a more effective system, such as the one-stop-shop model implemented in Scotland, which centralises permitting and licensing processes. Implementing such a model in Sri Lanka could enhance the country’s offshore wind energy potential and contribute to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 7, which focuses on ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all.

Abstract:
This second report from the Breaking Binaries Research (BBR) programme extends and develops our first report which offered a preliminary review of mapping understandings of genders and sexualities across policy data (Pritchard et al., 2023). As in our first report, we focus on the implications of these understandings for entrepreneurs and small businesses in relation to how diversity is constructed by policy makers. We define gender and sexuality diversity as including all those who self-identify as not conforming to binary identities and/or bodies, and those who identify in various, and sometimes multiple ways, as part of LGBTQIA+ and non-binary communities. Policy makers labelling of these identities, especially the use of pre-given categories, is problematic (Guyan, 2022). Within the overarching initialisms or acronyms, like LGBTQIA+, sit host of diverse, and in most cases, intersecting communities, which are oversimplified and little understood.
