Opis

This book discusses China's S&T (science and technology) decision-making mechanism, with the National High Technology Research and Development Program (863 Program) as the central case and scientists' influence on public decision-making as the focus. More importantly, for the first time, it extracts three key elements to analyze the determinative factors behind scientists' influence — knowledge, value and institutions, and proposed a KIV framework of macro-analysis.
