This publication provides new information on public research institutions (PRIs) and government strategies. Public research institutions are crucial for innovation due to their role in knowledge creation and diffusion. While absolute real expenditure on R&D in this sector has risen, it now accounts for a smaller share of total R&D spending by OECD countries and of OECD GDP. The targets and focus of many PRIs have evolved in recent years. Changing activities, new policy challenges and wider economic and political developments have driven change in missions and mandates and linkages have become focal points for many. Internationalisation has also increased and relationships are frequently collaborative. PRIs’ sources of income are diverse but funding has become increasingly competitive. Funding instruments need to balance short-and long-term goals to uphold research quality and ensure the sustainability of PRI activities.

Public administration, since antiquity and in the years to come, will remain the central and most decisive instrument of governance for ensuring human security and well-being through the effective delivery of quality public services. Looking back at 50 years of the landscape of comparative public administration, the story told through these pages has tried to document the odyssey of an international organization that successfully confronted many challenges to its existence while achieving continuity of leadership by providing a homogeneous outlook with participatory and interactive forum for both academics and practitioners. An impressive gathering of scholars and practitioners working as a team has provided a panoramic overview of the history of comparative public administration as a field of study, and the role played by the International Association of Schools and Institutes of Administration during its 50 years odyssey. Edited by O.P. Dwivedi with contributions from such eminent scholars and IASIA stalwarts as Ladipo Admolekun, Paul Collins, Michiel de Vries, Turgay Ergun, Bernardo Mattarella, Stefano Pizzicannella, Melchior Powell, Allan Rosenbaum, Roger Wettenhall, and Gabriel William, the volume depicts an intimate account of the start-up, the inner workings and accomplishments of an international organization which helped in the maturity of the discipline by building a strong foundation for experts and practitioners to exchange ideas and learn from each other.

Security force assistance (SFA) is a central pillar of the counterinsurgency campaign being waged by U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan. This monograph analyzes SFA efforts in Afghanistan over time, documents U.S. and international approaches to building the Afghan force from 2001 to 2009, and provides observations and recommendations that emerged from extensive fieldwork in Afghanistan in 2009 and their implications for the U.S. Army.
