Publication date: 1998-07-10
| Complete listing and access info | Download
This report focuses on basic research -- the experimental or theoretical work intended to advance science and engineering knowledge rather than develop a specific product or process. CED recommends policy reforms to ensure that tomorrow's basic research can be as productive and effective as possible. The recommendations address Congress' procedures for allocating funds for basic research, the central role of the research university and the individual scientific investigator, the critical importance of peer review, the need to sustain the pipeline of high-quality scientists and engineers for the long-term, and the implications of an increasingly global research enterprise.

Publication date: 1998-04-23
| Complete listing and access info | Download
This policy statement presents CED's approach to modernizing government regulations and recommendations for the changes required to do so. Unlike most previous examinations of regulatory reforms, which focus on the drafting of regulations in the Executive Branch, this statement emphasizes the need to revise the basic statutes governing regulation.

U.S. Economic Policy Toward The Asia-Pacific Region
Author/Creator: Committee for Economic Development Research and Policy Committee
Publication date: 1997-01-01
| Complete listing and access info | Download
The purpose of this statement was to lay out the need for a coherent and sustained economic policy toward Asia. Economic and political developments in Asia are having an extensive and increasing impact on global prospects for peace and prosperity as well as on the economic future of American workers and businesses. The statement proposes a substantive policy contribution from the private sector. There has been little business-to-business dialogue about trade and investment issues in conjunction with the increasing prominence of Asian economies. In spite of its day-today involvement, business has been insufficiently involved in representing long-term U.S. interests to policy makers. Complete listing and access info »
