Article Abstract:
Some core issues that are central to the late Keith Pavitt's research are addressed here, mainly the construction and use of tools to measure national innovative performance and to design national policies relating to innovation. The robustness of the innovation scoreboards is studied through the presentation of the sensitivity analysis of one selected case.
