Description

Current methods for measuring science and technology impact often rely on assumptions built for developed nations. This volume by Routledge addresses the flaws in these existing frameworks when applied to developing countries. The contributors argue that using standard indicators in these contexts frequently leads to inaccurate conclusions regarding progress and impact. This book provides a necessary perspective for researchers and policymakers who require a more accurate way to evaluate scientific and technological development. By questioning the validity of traditional metrics, the text offers a foundation for better understanding how science and technology function within different economic and social environments. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of science, technology, and global development.
