Abstract: | It is already clear at this point that the Euro-Mediterranean Free Trade Area, due to be in place by 2010, cannot be achieved without decisively boosting the power of innovation - a central precondition for international competitiveness - in the countries of the southern Mediterranean. It is of particular significance that - apart from the necessary financial support for economic adjustment measures - Europe allows its southern Mediterranean partner states to participate in European innovation policy. |
