Academics and policy makers argue that in a globalized knowledge economy, the European Union needs to change its approach to international science and technology policies by focusing on better
coherence of policies across different tiers of government and by demonstrating leadership in tackling major global challenges. Their topics include forming European responses to the challenge
of climate change and energy resource supply, enabling institutional responses to innovation in latecomer countries, the added value of international policy coordination, and the European
Initiative for Agricultural Research for Development as a case study of information coordination of international science and technology policy. Annotation 穢2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
