Summary/Abstract |
Like any multiplicity, "actor-network theory" is many things: an influential current within the sociology of science and technology; a relational and anti-essentialist form of materialism; an insistence that notions of agency not be confined to human subjects but embrace objects, devices, and other non-human entities; and much else besides.

Summary/Abstract |
A common perception is that China has relied on the expansion of labour-intensive industries and flooded the world market with cheap but low to medium level technology products. Although it has become the third largest exporting nation, China has failed to create a large number of big businesses that can compete with the world’s leading multinational companies (Nolan (2004)). The Chinese government has long been aware of the weakness of its development strategy and has been trying to improve its own technological capacity through investments in basic research, innovations and the application of new technologies, utility models and designs. China’s strategy on science and technology can be best described by the so-called ‘walking with two legs’ principle. The first leg is based on building up domestic research and innovative capacity. This is through investments in research institutes, universities and LMEs. China’s second leg has been to build up its technology capacity through its open policy and attracting FDI and technology. China has made significant advances in the following areas regarding science and technology.
– Research and innovative activities have been encouraged and supported by the central and regional governments.
– More research and innovative activities are encouraged in the LMEs.
– HEIs have become increasingly important for research and innovative activities.
– The export-push strategy and encouragement of FDI inflow are two important venues for importing advanced foreign technologies.
China also has a number of weaknesses in science and technology.
– Research expenditure has not kept up with economic development.
– There are not enough big businesses that are highly innovative and cannot compete effectively with the world’s largest multinational enterprises.
– China is weak in the key industries that are intensive with advanced technologies, computer software, aircraft, automobile and electrical appliances, etc.
– Most of the LMEs are state-owned and are renounced for their inefficiency and loss-making.
– China has greatly depended on foreign technologies for its economic development.
– China’s expenditures on science and technology have been low by international standards and low compared to its fast economic growth.
– China’s economic growth has been heavily dependent on investments and labour and not so much on technological progress and efficiency improvement.

Summary/Abstract |
The author examines issues of and prospects for China's innovative development, the formation processes of the strategy of introduction of the advanced world experience as well as new scientific and technological innovations during the past seven five-year-plan periods (from 1981 to 2015). The article assesses plans and prospects of scientific and technological development in the 13th five-year-plan period (2016-2020). It also analyzes the main development trends, problems, and difficulties confronting China along the developmental path toward an innovative economy.

Summary/Abstract |
This article examines China's innovation strategy as a key part of its economic development policy to achieve the next stage of the country's domestic market modernization. The news that China now possesses the world's fastest supercomputer appears to confirm the country's inexorable journey from the world's manufacturer and assembly hub to leading global innovator. However, this article presents an examination of broader-based innovation metrics which casts a different light on China's position, showing that much work still remains to be done in order to lift domestic innovative activity to world-class levels. The country is certainly a challenger, but does not yet appear to have become a leader. The article draws on the latest research data of China's innovative capabilities and links these to empirical assessments of the country's information and communications technology sector to illustrate current strengths and weaknesses. In conclusion, it is argued that key inhibitors remain in the context of creating commercially sustainable competitive advantage in science and technology, and that the strengthening of moves towards nationalist innovation strategies may be counterproductive as China embarks on a critical phase of its engagement with the global research and development community.

Summary/Abstract |
Disasters destroy lives and livelihoods around the world. Thus science and technology is already helping to save lives and livelihoods in some instances. For disaster risk reduction, science is considered in its widest sense to include the natural, environmental, social, economic, health and engineering sciences.

Summary/Abstract |
The development of a country is closely linked to investments made in science and technology as well as in social science and humanities. The investments made by China during last three decades in scientific research and technological innovation have led to flourishing industries and ultimately to economic development. India needs to enhance its investment in scientific research and innovation. However, unregulated development also leads to environmental and ecological issues. India and China are both actively addressing issues related to climate change. It may be worthwhile to develop a joint strategy by India and China to mitigate impacts of climate change. Another area where India and China can work together to understand the Himalayan eco-system as it affects many countries in this region. A formation of the Himalayan Science Council has been proposed to address issues related to glaciology, biodiversity, earthquakes and landslide as well as social and cultural issues. Such collaboration can be further advanced in the Arctic and Antarctica through the Asian Forum for Polar Sciences and influence Arctic and Antarctic research. The scientific leadership which India has in the Indian Ocean needs to leveraged for scientific diplomacy with China. Such scientific collaboration will not only help India and China but also contribute towards addressing regional and global scientific challenges.

Summary/Abstract |
Japan remains a developmental state where the state guides and oversees economic development, and the strong bureaucracy and businesses in turn complement each other in leading and shaping policies to achieve developmental goals. Japan retains the institutions deemed necessary to enhance the cooperative behaviour of the bureaucracy, businesses and politicians, and norms about what is important in order for an interventionist state to implement policies aimed at achieving economic development and the autonomy of the state. Externally, Japan has practised economic diplomacy with tools such as development assistance to achieve its economic security and to promote the developmental state model abroad. The process of making foreign policy contextualised and reinforced the norms, for both Japan’s domestic and international audiences. Japan today tries to promote science and technology as a main catalyst for creating industries and supporting its domestic, export-oriented economy. This is based on Japan’s own interpretation of its historical path and economic success and is also used to justify its engagement in the Arctic, a region where Japan does not have any sovereign territories. Japan’s Arctic policy is as an extension of its economic diplomacy and an attempt to export the Japanese developmental state model.

Summary/Abstract |
The terrorist power grows in arithmetical progression where as the state power in the age of science and technology can grow in geometrical progression. One fact has is very clear that both the power of state and terrorist has increased. Ultimately, problem of terrorism cannot be solved by violent means. Good ends can be achieved only through good means. Violence leads to counter-violence and anti-humanity. States have to bring down terrorism by applying multi-level approach including changing the behaviour of terrorist through non-violent means.
