Title: THE DEMAND FOR RUSSIAN SCIENCE: AS REFLECTED IN RUSSIA’S STRATEGIC DOCUMENTS
Abstract: The problem of creating adequate demand for the results of scientific research
has been discussed in Russia for nearly two decades. The low demand for
innovation technologies and the orientation to budget funding are the longstanding
and well-known issues in the sphere of science and technologies.
The new strategic documents concerning this country’s innovation-based
development that were made public in autumn 2015 put forth, among other
things, the decisions aimed at boosting the performance level in the science
sector. However, the issue presented by the low demand for science products
is not explained clearly enough in those documents in relation to the proposed
approaches and measures to be implemented, and so no target instruments
applicable in this connection are suggested.
