Abstract

This study investigates the dynamics of R&D human resources in Romania and in EU. The general approach is focused on identifying what are the causes – especially the managerial ones – that determine a certain distribution of wealth among countries and a certain proactive – intensive response (mainly R&D activities) to the challenges implied by the shifting to the knowledge-based economy. The methods we used to tackle these issues comprised a study of the most influential trends regarding R&D human resources in Romania during a 8 year period (2003 - 2010) and cross-country research at EU level that focused on investigating the correlations between the economic development level and measures like: R&D personnel share in total employment and R&D labour cost by performance sectors (government sector and business enterprise sector). Also, we have enriched our endeavor by applying a previously developed methodology of ranking and grouping EU states as regard to the intensity of R&D activities, thus generating a conceptual and empirical platform for accomplishing synergy effects between several works that focus on various aspects of the Romania´s R&D specific within the European Union.
