forms of science organization and an accelerated technological re-equlpment of work of alI people engaged In scientific activities. Being Influenced by these factors the CMEA member States actively search for and practically formulate new Ideas of their science pol Icy as well as more efficient forms of Interaction of their scientific and technological . potentialities. New approaches to science economics. and new forms of programmed and complex organization of scientific-technological activities are being developed. Systematic Improvement of science resources management and utilization are considered to be one of the ~st Important orientations In bringing alI national economy manage­ ment mechanism to perfection. PRINCIPLES OF CO-OPERATION The state science policy pursues not an Increment of expen­ ditures on science per se or an Increase of number of scientists Involved In the sphere of co-operation but the effects achieved on the basts of full and expedient use of scientific knowledge resulting from fundamental research, Its materialization and appl !cation. The necessity ~f reinforcing ~he Influence of the mutual cooperation and Integration on scientific and technological progress requires at present a more profound study of actual processes taking place In the sphere of science and technology of the cooperating countries. In this respect a particular signifi­ cance Is placed on the analysis of the status and development dynamics of the S&T potentiality, especially Its resources. Acceleration of S&T progress and the Increasing Influence of science on the process of reproduction In the countries of social 1st community have resulted In a considerable raise of expenses on R&D activities as well as the member of personnel working In this sphere. COMPARATIVE FEATURES On the basts of growth of material and manpower resources Involved In R&D activities sclentlflc-techno1'oglcal complexes are being formed within the national economy framework of separate
