How scientists commercialise new knowledge via entrepreneurship 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In this paper, we explore how university-based scientists overcome the barriers to appropriating the returns from new knowledge
via entrepreneurship; and we examine how a university-based technology transfer office (TTO), with an incubation facility,
can assist scientists in the commercialisation process. We identify how scientists overcome three barriers to commercialisation.
First, we find that scientists take account of traditional academic rewards when considering the pay-offs of commercialisation
activity. Second, scientists recognise the commercial value of new knowledge when market-related knowledge is embedded in
their research context, and/or when they develop external contacts with those with market knowledge. Third, the deliberate
efforts of scientists to acquire market information results in individuals or organisations with market knowledge learning
of the new knowledge developed by the scientists; and intermediaries can help individuals or organisations with resources
learn of new knowledge developed by scientists. We find that the TTO, principally through an enterprise development programme
(CCDP), played an important role in the commercialisation process. The principal benefit of the TTO is in the domain of putting
external resource providers in contact with scientists committed to commercialisation. Our findings have important implications
for scientists and for those interested in promoting commercialisation via entrepreneurship.

This paper questions the claim that British militarized security strategy in Northern Ireland offers a model for the global 'war against terrorism' by exploring the critically important (though neglected) 'Falls Curfew' episode. Part one explores the relationship between law, legitimacy, and the role of the military in democracies experiencing violent conflict. Part two examines the operationalization of the law on military intervention during the curfew, drawing on archival material and employing empirical studies. Part three draws overall conclusions, relating the contribution that the curfew made to the escalation of the conflict to its operational aspects and legal underpinnings. Failings are identified, and some general lessons drawn out about the dangers of a 'war' model in complex and violent political disorders. 相似文献

When and why do electoral candidates politicize ethnicity? From the literature, we might expect this behaviour to occur during democratic transitions or under proportional rules. However, empirical support for these arguments is mixed. This article presents a new approach, arguing that candidate-centric rules offer candidates incentives to politicize ethnicity. The argument is tested in Indonesia with empirical evidence drawn from coding newspaper reports on campaign events, endorsements and group appeals. Indonesia used party-centric rules from 1997 to 2004, and even though the country democratized during this period, the politicization of ethnicity actually declined. I show how party-centric rules, coupled with a national economic crisis, encouraged candidates to campaign on broad national platforms of reform and development, thereby appealing to the poor rather than to ethnic groups. Between 2004 and 2009, the system became more candidate-centric and the politicization of ethnicity increased. I argue that changes in the system freed candidates from national party platforms and motivated them to campaign on their local connections with ethnic groups. This study is particularly pertinent amidst the push for direct candidate-centric elections in the developing world and the lack of literature on how such rules could affect ethnic politics. 相似文献

Abstract: Reburial of human remains and concerns regarding pathogens and pollution prompted the search for, and assessment of, a 156-year-old graveyard. To locate this graveyard, historic and anecdotal information was compared to landscape interpretation from aerial photography. To assess and map the contents, surface collapses, metal detector indications, and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) were used. Some 170 anomalies compatible with burials were identified on 200 MHz GPR data, 84 of which coincided with surface collapses, suggesting both noncollapsed ground, subsequent infill, and multiple inhumations. The graveyard was possibly split into Roman Catholic plots with multiple inhumations; Protestant plots; and a kileen, or graveyard for the unbaptized (often children). The work serves as one approach to the location and mapping of recent and historic unmarked graves. 相似文献
