The regional research policy of the Austrian federal states

Abstract

Abstract This research focuses on the regional research policy of the federal states. The paper analyses the existing academic research sources of the regional research policies and answers questions of the regions's analysis. The methodology uses specific working papers essential for the European region's and sources of the Austrian public administration. Concerning the empirical part, this paper uses qualitatively focussed structured guideline surveys. The research will facilitate discussions on aspects of methodological approaches to research, data capture and analysis, perceived research outcomes and contributions to the body of knowledge. Essential is the separation of subvention policy, which means the matter of distinct locational competition and it occurs the establishment of co-production within the regions to present itself mutual externally to persist in the global contest. The findings indicate that even through this concept for success is highly influenced by funding's that are not very controllable by the regions, such as the federal states, and it is a positive prototype for prospective similar cases.
