Continuity and change in the politics of European scientific collaboration

Författare

Summary, in English

Intergovernmental collaboration in the area of big science has been an important resource for European science

since the 1950s. Yet, as a policy area, it has traditionally been left outside of the political integration work of the

European Community/Union. Despite this formal detachment, the political realities of the collaborations often

draw upon and reflect the (geo)political dynamics of Europe. This article reports on a study of two big projects

in the making (the European Spallation Source and the European X-ray Free Electron Laser), and uses two

historical cases for comparison (the European Laboratory for Nuclear Research and the European Synchrotron

Radiation Facility). It highlights critical issues in establishing and operating collaborations, relates these to the

broader context of European political integration, and discusses, on the basis of this, signs of continuity and

change in this distinct area of European research policy.
