Research priority areas and research programmes in Norway

Abstract

Despite criticism of the Norwegian implementation of research priority areas as symbolic of a trend towards more external control of academic research, a survey of researchers revealed that they were very supportive of the scheme. It provides them with additional resources, they do not have to change the direction of their research, and they are able to collaborate with other scientists in their own and other disciplines. This form of mild steering, by the distribution of extra resources without any strong demands for adaptation, seems to be effective. Copyright , Beech Tree Publishing.
