ENGLISH: The New Club of Paris, an association of knowledge economists,sociologists and entrepreneurs comparable to the Club of Rome,was founded in 2005/2006 as a continuation of a high level expertgroup constituted by the European Commission. Based on analysesperformed jointly by international and national experts, the Clubhas been issuing a series of Round Table Reports on the statusof the transformation of a country towards the Knowledge Society.The report on Austria is the third in the series after Finlandand Morocco, to be followed next by a report on Malaysia. Itsummarizes its results in a set of six recommendations. Additionalcontributions of the individual experts provide detailed insightsand comprehensive facts on the state of research and knowledgepolicies in Austria, such as extracts from the so-called systemevaluation report published in 2009 and analyses of political powerstructures. The report also includes constructive recommendationson how to compensate for well-known deficiencies, such asa lack of entrepreneurial dynamism, inadequate developmentof human capital, and slow take-up of new areas of research.The special value of this report lies in the way that it contraststhe “internal” perspectives of Austrian experts with the “external”perspectives of international experts. The resulting momentumleads to mutual learning in the area of integrated knowledgepolicies, thus paving the way to the future knowledge society.This report is a valuable resource for governments, parliaments,science and research administrations, professionalsand decision makers working in science and research,opinion leaders in education and in research policy, aswell as members of universities and research institutes.
