Integrating new countries into the European Research Area: Croatian reflections on joining the European Union
The post-Cold War era is witnessing more European nations joining the European Union (EU). This influx of new members necessitates, inter alia, a re-examination of the policies that guide their integration into the common European Research Area (ERA). The basic premise of these policies is—or should be—axiomatic for Europe's further development: the continent cannot afford scientific illiteracy or underdevelopment in any region. The reasons are self-evident: at a minimum, scientific research is needed to nurture scientific literacy as the basis for technological progress and to increase general literacy ; at most, it is a force that enriches, humanizes and ennobles. Consequently, claims that scientific research is too expensive for countries with emerging economies, or that these countries are unlikely to make major contributions to the scientific and technological progress of Europe, are no longer relevant. The pertinent question, then, is how to maximize its creative potential across the entire ERA.
