The exceptional impact of free market globalization on CIS countries and the use of innovation to counter the concomitant socioeconomic problems are profoundly and frankly analyzed and discussed from a variety of standpoints, both cultural and geographical. New possible solutions are presented and discussed, leading to a proposal for the development of a "common technological language".

An analysis of the problems arising from the impact of free market globalization in CIS countries. Possible new solutions are presented and discussed, especially those based on the key role of innovation. A proposal is made for the development of a "common technological language", starting from a European standardization of computer aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM).

The exceptional impact of free market globalization on CIS countries and the use of innovation to counter the concomitant socioeconomic problems are profoundly and frankly analyzed and discussed from a variety of standpoints, both cultural and geographical. New possible solutions are presented and discussed, leading to a proposal for the development of a 'common technological language'. Audience: A high level reference text for experts and organizations interested in economic problems and forecasting, which underscores the technological aspects and the cultural revolution needed for advanced, high quality manufacturing and service sectors. Of interest to experts in both technology and economics.

The great, complex and rapid change happening in fonner Soviet Union is overfloading an impressive impact on the western world, especially Europe, and, in the close future, on the global world. Most of this change is generating positive effects and even more optimistic expectations, but surely the difficulties to support and to render these results real and longlasting cannot be underestimated . In fact, difficulties in the adaptation, especially of the most important Countries capabilities, like R&D process and Innovation development and transfer, are being evidenced in the transitional period to completely new socio-economic and political conditions. For the above reasons various Conferences and Meetings have been organised on international base, most of them taking care of identifying and developing recommendations for improving organisation of Science in East Europe and reshaping the research in Science and Technology in the context of new socio-economic conditions. These efforts were mainly confined to scientific research that was considered one of the most important wealth''s of Soviet Union, giving not specific attention to the strategic importance of Science and, even more, Innovation for industrial and socio-economic growth in the new N.I.S. Countries. Furthennore, the impressive speed of change in Innovation on the global market coupled to the enonnous change realised by N.I.S. Countries, especially by the leader Russia, is accelerating the need of an operating solution capable of linking these Countries with the Western World, rules and market, starting from Europe.

A profound and frank analysis of the problems arising from the impact of free market globalization in CIS countries. Possible new solutions are presented and discussed, especially those based on the key role of innovation. A new, original proposal is made for the development of a `common technological language', starting from a European standardization of computer aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM).
