Research and development (R&D) in the United States of America (USA) have prospered over the five years since the UNESCO Science Report 2005 was published. The political environment has remained conducive to a large federal role in defence and basic research, while the universities have continued to strive for excellence in research and teaching, beneficiaries of generous federal subventions and project support. Operating in a friendly policy environment, companies have invested unprecedented amounts in research. The threatening cloud on the horizon for R&D is the global economic recession.
