Abstract

This paper suggests a tentative “typology” for Non-OECD National Systems ofInnovation (NSIs). Three main categories compose this tentative “typology”: “mature” NSIs,catching up NSIs, and “non-mature” NSIs. This paper investigates theoretical mediationswhich may be necessary if the NSI concept is to be applied appropriately to Non-OECDcountries. Science and technology statistics are used to evaluate the suggested “typology”.Basic statistics (GDP, R&D expenditures, education, patents, and papers) are presented. Datafrom forty-six countries are used for statistical exercises. The findings of this paper hintthat it is possible to cluster different countries around science and technology indicators. JEL Classification: O33; O35; O43.
