Abstract

It is well known that the weight of manufacturing in the economy has been decreasing substantially in many countries, which has become service-based economies, with the notable exception of Germany, Korea and China. This has happened together with an increasing democratization of the access to higher education and the opening-up of the science base in many world regions. On the other hand, the geographical concentration of industrial production have facilitated many of those regions to increasingly lose their productive ability, leading to changes in employment structure and the mobility of skilled people. This raises new concerns for science and industrial policies, which require to be discussed in terms of new forms of stakeholder engagement.
