Looks at the growing role of the states and the legacy they have inherited from earlier state science and technology activities. Unfortunately, much of what states have done is not guided by any sense of coordinated strategy. Argues that they need to get their individual and collective acts together. (SJK)

In the 1980s, driven by economic hardships, the decline in basic industries, & Reagan administration cutbacks in domestic programs, many state governors sought to assert political leadership through technology-based economic development programs. By 1988, at least 38 states had government agencies or offices specifically designed for science & technology (S&T) missions. Most of the other states had S&T programs & activities run by existing government departments or agencies. S&T policies in 13 states are examined, with a focus on: (1) the role of the new S&T agencies & offices that embody the S&T-based economic development drive of states; (2) the function of more traditional state government agencies & their roles in this emerging function of S&T-based economic development; & (3) state competition for major, national high technology facilities. 15 References.

How do interactions in the cyber domain affect states' ontological security and how do states respond to these challenges? These are pertinent questions given the increasing influence of cyber technologies on daily life, politics, and International Relations. Over the years, state actors have faced challenges in various spheres, including security, politics, economics, and culture. However, nowadays, cyber technologies enable the emergence of effective, efficient, and powerful alternatives to the current state-system practices. This creates fundamental challenges to states' sense of self, identity, and home, calling into question states' dominant and ingrained narratives regarding their roles in the international arena. I suggest that the scholarship of ontological security, although rarely used in this context, provides intriguing analytical tools to explore these questions. This scholarship focuses on the actors' ability to maintain their sense of self, allowing researchers to explore how interactions in the cyber domain challenge states' routines, narratives, and sense of home. Furthermore, using the scholarship of ontological security to study cyber technologies can also account for states' responses, illuminating puzzling behavior that cannot be explained fully through other perspectives.

It is difficult to justify increased state government support for higher education using arguments based only on how higher education contributes to economic growth. The authors find no strong relationship between state funding of higher education and employment concentration in high-technology industries. Instead, they find that investment in public higher education will tend to be lower than justified on economic efficiency grounds because of the incentives for states to free ride off of the investments of other states. A challenge is to build advocacy strategies that take into account some of the realities of the relationship between public expenditures in higher education and economic growth, including the fact that the relationship is strongly influenced by the movement of educated workers across state borders. Other justifications for public higher education will have to be used, including the reduction of transaction costs for businesses in the state and the expansion of knowledge exchange.
