The OECD Science, Technology and Industry (STI) Scoreboard 2005, the seventh in a series spanning over a decade, explores the growing interaction between knowledge and globalisation at the centre of the ongoing transformation of OECD economies. As innovation becomes a key determinant for long-run economic growth and social well-being, the Scoreboard provides a comprehensive picture of countries' performance in the areas of science, technology, globalisation and industry.
The STI Scoreboard brings together over 200 figures, many of which are new to this edition, to help examine emerging policy issues, including the international mobility of researchers and scientists, the increasing pace of innovation as measured by patenting, the growth of the information economy, the changing role of multinational enterprises, new patterns in trade competitiveness, and the emergence of key international players outside the OECD area, notably China.
The Scoreboard has become a widely used reference which combines statistical rigour with easy access and readability. The key findings are presented as bullet points alongside graphs highlighting the relative performance of countries. In addition, brief technical notes provide further methodological detail on the indicators, along with links to useful references and data sources. More detailed data are also provided in the form of a statistical annex.
The Scoreboard is available both as a printed edition and as an electronic Web book. Access to the underlying Excel spreadsheets used to create the charts and graphs is available from both the printed and electronic editions via the StatLinks provided on each page.
Summaries of the publication are available in the following languages:
English, Chinese, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Greece, Hungarian, Icelandic, Italian, Japan, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Turkish and Swedish.
The following country notes are also available: United States, France, Germany, Japan, United Kingdom.
