摘要:Changes in the security spectrum, in terms of reconfiguring its military content, subsequently involves another approach to security and defense research. Especially the economic aspects have a quantitative and qualitative impact on the management of the research specific to this field, which has long been taken for granted, causing changes in both the interests and the power of influence held by different categories of stakeholders. This article explores the main directions of change within the aforementioned framework, highlighting the major modalities of involving the civilian segment of capabilities and specialized assets, on a track considered for a long time and to a much greater extent compared to the present imperatives, as an area dedicated exclusively to the military. The thematic target approached by the team of authors includes both national and international plans, individualized or clustered, at the current level but also as trends, the main aim of the scientific approach is that of highlighting good practices in the field of research and development of dual-use products. The conclusion is that the possibilities of the civilian-military academic cooperation can be better grounded in order to achieve better results in terms of the operationalization of the security interest in a comprehensive manner, materialized mainly through research projects.
