Measuring The Development of Science and Technology In A Changing Economy: The Case of Albania
This is an edited version of a report prepared for UNESCO/UNDP as part of their
program of assistance to the Government of Albania. Published in 1996, it states that there are currently three main elements in the Albanian national system of innovation: government ministries, S&T institutes, each of which (except the Academy of Science) is associated with a ministry and the university sector. It also tries to estimate Albanian S&T spending and deals with measurement of S&T for non-economic objectives and future work on S&T Indicators in Albania. It comes to conclusion that Albania will need an S&T policy infrastructure as part of its overall development strategy which will require accurate and timely data for policy development.
