About this book

A major new assessment of European technology policy set in the context of the wider political economy of contemporary Europe. The book focuses centrally on collaborative research programmes, such as the EU's Framework programme and the intergovernmental EUREKA programme, and their contribution to European technological competitiveness. Based on new and original research, Technology Policy in the European Union provides definitive coverage of an increasingly important, expensive and politicised area of public policy
