Giulio De Leo et al. draw attention to the debate in Italy about the reform of research policy (Nature 391, 12; 1998). They also show the results of a bibliometric analysis of papers in environmental research produced by the universities, CNR, ENEA and other scientific institutions between 1981 and 1996.
