44 MPIfG Report 1999–2002 Jacqueline M. Senker et al. European Comparison of Public Research Systems. Brighton: SPRU, University of Sussex, 1999, 71 pp. Online: Economic Research Institutes in the Federal Republic of Germany: Publicly Funded Economic Research in Its Social Context Arnold Wilts This project was launched by Renate Mayntz as part of a larger research project on questions of the institutional linking mechanisms between science and its societal environment (cf. Renate Mayntz and Uwe Schimank, eds., Linking Theory and Practice: Intermediation between Science and Society and its Effects on the Development of Scientific Knowledge. Research Policy, Special Issue Vol. 27, No. 8, pp. 747–879, 1998). In this context, this particular project investigates the organization of economic research in the Federal Republic of Germany. Its central question is how topics of economic research are identified in different institutional contexts and how the decisionmaking procedures with respect to the identification of goals and priorities of economic research differ across those contexts. The answer to the research question shows that the way in which policy initiatives and market incentives are brought to bear on the contents of economic research is structured by both the internal organization of research institutes and by the organization of their external relations with actors in other social subsystems. This finding highlights the selectivity of different intermediary structures between science and its societal environment. The empirical phase of the project was concluded in the summer of 1998 with a series of expert interviews. In summer of 1999, a final report was published. Two journal articles discuss the project’s findings. Project duration: May 1997 to August 1999. Arnold Wilts Forms of Research Organization and Their Responsiveness to External Goal Setting.

Endbericht. Cologne: Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies, 1999, 154 pp. Online: The Internet and the Development of Research Computer Networks: An International Comparison from a Governance Perspective Raymund Werle and Volker Leib Since the early 1990s the Internet, originally a US research network, has grown immensely. Not only the academic but also the global business community has increasingly been attracted by this network. Our project aims to explain the career of the Internet, which is regarded as the prototype of a new socio-technical model of the development and operation of large technical systems based on non-hierarchical, decentralized organizational structures with a great number of organizations involved. We compare the Internet to research networks in Germany (DFN/WiN) and the United Kingdom (JANET) in order to identify the factors that led to its success. We suggest that differences in the governance structures of these countries account for the different careers of the networks. Governance includes the institutionalized modes of coordination and cooperation and the business and political interests unfolding in this context. Network features such as organization, funding and financing, utilization and standards are used as indicators of the careers of the networks. They are objects of political and institutional control, which is shaped by the governance structure of three sectors in particular: telecommunications, information technology, and research and education. Control becomes effective in pivotal moments for each network’s development, i.e. when decisions about different possible paths of development have to be taken. Several articles based on the project’s results have been published in journals and edited volumes. Project duration: April 1996 to April 1999. Many of the print publications from this project are also available online at .
