in the European Research Area

Preamble

Science is, and has always been international. It thrives on the free exchange of findings and methods, but also on the unhindered access to a varied range of research topics and  nfrastructures. “Internationalization” is the process of further transformation experienced in science through recent decades. Intrinsically scientific, social and ecological challenges, which can be met only on a global scale, became accompanied by political and economic interests and, due to globalization, rapidly increasing international competition. As a result, the internationalization of science is now driven not only by science itself, but increasingly
also by political intention.

The report “Recommendations on the Internationalization of Science Relations”  [Empfehlungen zur Internationalisierung der Wissenschaftsbeziehungen], presented by the German Council of Science and Humanities [Wissenschaftsrat] as early as 1992, focused on issues of studying abroad, foreign students and cooperation between universities, and on the perspectives of research funding at European level.

The fact that the Council is addressing this topic afresh is due to the ever more dynamic formation of the dimensions and outlines of the European Research Area (ERA) associated with progressing European integration.

With the establishment of this paradigm by the European Council and the European Commission began a stronger process of Europeanization, which is distinct from the general process of internationalization of science relations as it is molded, to a much greater extent, by political framework conditions.
