The Impact and Organization of Publicly-funded Research and Development in the European Community
註釋This paper examines R & D activities in the European Community using the Community R & D Information Service (CORDIS) databases. We find that a country's private companies tend to be specialized in the same scientific fields as its universities and public organizations. In addition, we construct indicators of the degree of R & D tacitness and find that greater expected ability to communicate research outcomes encourages less centralized R & D programs. Programs that yield tangible results are less geographically and administratively centralized. The more that research leads to codifiable knowledge, the less centralized R & D activity needs to be.
