The Companion systematically analyzes the challenges, problems and gaps in innovation research. Leading scholars reflect upon and critically assess the fundamental topics of the field, including: * innovation as a concept * innovation and institutions * innovation and creativity * innovation, networking and communities * innovation in permanent spatial settings * innovation in temporary and virtual settings * innovation, entrepreneurship and market making * innovation governance and management. Innovation researchers and students in economics, economic geography, industrial sociology, innovation studies, international business, management and political science will find the Companion to be an essential resource.

The Evolution of Social Innovation / Frances WESTLEY / Cheltenham : EDWARD ELGAR PUBLISHING LTD (2017)  

Titre : The Evolution of Social Innovation : building resilience through transitions Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Frances WESTLEY, Auteur Editeur : Cheltenham : EDWARD ELGAR PUBLISHING LTD Année de publication : 2017 Importance : 282 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-78643-115-8 Prix : 112 EUR Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Management CHANGEMENT SOCIAL ; INNOVATION ; INNOVATION TECHNOLOGIQUE Résumé : At a time when governments and civil society organizations are putting ever-greater stock in social innovation as a route to transformation, understanding what characterizes social innovation with transformative potential is important. Exciting and promising ideas seem to die out as often as they take flight, and market mechanisms, which go a long way towards contributing to successful technical innovations, play an insignificant role in social innovations. The cases in this book explore the evolution of successful social innovation through time, from the ideas which catalyzed social and system entrepreneurs to create new processes, platforms, projects, and programs to fundamental social shifts in culture, economics, laws, and policies which occurred as a result. In doing so, the authors shed light on how to recognize transformative potential in the early stage innovations we see today. This comparison of multiple historical cases across problem domains creates a map of social innovation over time - shifting our thinking on both current issues and established programs. From the American national parks and the joint stock company to the intelligence test and the financial derivatives that led to the 2008 crash, this book acts as a useful reflection and a cautionary tale, looking back to gain insight and inform the vibrant discussion of social innovation's future. This book pushes the theoretical and methodological boundaries of the field through approachable narratives, making it an ideal resource for social innovation students, scholars, instructors, and practitioners.

The Rise to Market Leadership / Franco MALERBA / Cheltenham : EDWARD ELGAR PUBLISHING LTD (2017)  

Titre : The Rise to Market Leadership : new leading firms from emerging countries Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Franco MALERBA, Auteur Editeur : Cheltenham : EDWARD ELGAR PUBLISHING LTD Année de publication : 2017 Importance : 236 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-78347-679-4 Prix : 99.50 EUR Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Management BRESIL ; CHINE ; DEVELOPPEMENT ECONOMIQUE ; ENTREPRENEURIAT ; INDE ; INNOVATION TECHNOLOGIQUE ; PAYS EN DEVELOPPEMENT Résumé : In recent years many new international market leaders from the BRICS countries have emerged in diverse manufacturing and service industries. How did these new leaders emerge and become key players in their respective industries? What factors contributed to their success and enabled them to become market leaders? This new study answers these important questions with evidence presented from case studies in the automotive, pharmaceutical and ICT industries of China, India and Brazil. A common framework of analysis is followed throughout the volume allowing readers to compare and contrast the cases examined. This framework brings together factors at the firm, country and sectoral levels to explain the rise to leadership of these firms. The book highlights the importance of vibrant entrepreneurship and demonstrates that being local and having an ability to learn and build capabilities based on local knowledge have been major drivers of market success. Yet it also shows how such firm-level factors have been complemented by the role of both national and sectoral systems of innovation. This book offers an integrated framework for the study of innovation and the rise of market leaders as well as original case studies from important emerging economies. It will appeal to students, scholars, researchers and policy-makers interested in economic development and catch-up, entrepreneurship, innovation management and evolutionary economics.

The World Bank and the Globalisation of Housing Finance / Liam CLEGG / Cheltenham : EDWARD ELGAR PUBLISHING LTD (2017)  

Titre : The World Bank and the Globalisation of Housing Finance : Mortgaging Development Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Liam CLEGG, Auteur Editeur : Cheltenham : EDWARD ELGAR PUBLISHING LTD Année de publication : 2017 Importance : 208 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-78643-560-6 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Management BANQUE INTERNATIONALE ; CHINE ; LOGEMENT ; MEXIQUE ; SCIENCE POLITIQUE ; TANZANIE Résumé : The World Bank remains one of the most prominent actors in the field of global development, and one of the foremost international organisations in contemporary global politics. Over its history, its lending for housing has developed by prioritising financial sector expansion over the needs of low-income groups. Through this book, Liam Clegg explores the factors influencing change in the World Bank's operational practices, and the contribution of these operations to state transformations across the global South. The author outlines three main operational phases, in which the Bank prioritised: improving informal settlements, strengthening governments' housing finance programs, and expanding mortgage markets. Constrained experimentalism is identified as the driver of this changing focus, with trial and error-based learning interacting with personnel shifts and borrowers' reform trajectories to shape outcomes. In addition to reviewing relevant institutional dynamics at the World Bank, particular attention is paid to the impact of projects on housing system transformations in Mexico, China, and Tanzania. Overall, the declining focus on the housing needs of lower-income populations leads Clegg to label World Bank lending in this area as an exercise in mortgaging development. This valuable study of the field will be an important resource for researchers, postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students from across the fields of political science and international studies.
