Evaluating Research Projects: Issues in the Evaluation of the Commorg Project

چکیده
That RTD (Research and Technological Development) expenditure is related to social and economic development is widely acknowledged. At first sight, this relation could be traced as follows: “Expenditure in basic research produces discoveries used by applied research to conceive new products or new processes which generate positive social and economic impacts in the mid-long term” (STOA, 1999). But this scenario is deceiving; for instance, it cannot explain the European paradox that Europe invests less than the USA and Japan in basic research, achieves excellent results in this field but is not able to turn them into patents and economic competitiveness.
