Abstract
Policy imperatives in South Africa are clearly in favor of supporting an environment in which Mode 2 knowledge production will flourish. The National Council for Higher Education envisages a system that is increasingly responsive to national social and economic needs; actively seeks and is open to collaboration with other knowledge-producing partners and increasingly engages in applications-driven research. But to what extent has the South African Higher Education system become more responsive to Mode 2 knowledge production and what are the implications of this change for Research and Development Inputs in South Africa?-
