Abstract

This paper provides a comprehensive comparative analysis of the South East European countries scientific output and impact by Frascati fields of science in the period of 2005–2010. The aim is to determine the volume of scientific output in the mentioned period, level of development of certain scientific fields in selected countries and quality of scientific publication production. SEE countries’ scientific performance is examined on several indicators including total number of country publications per full time equivalent researcher, revealed publication advantage, the h index and top cited articles. Results of the study could be especially significant to the planners and policy-makers because they provide facts important for the long term S&T planning of the country.
