OverviewIn its continuing quest for competitiveness in world markets, the EU has recently moved away from a technology policy towards an innovation policy. In other words, from a strategy almost entirely focused on supporting collaborative alliances, the EU now has a broader policy vision which aims to engender a positive institutional environment for European innovators. This fresh policy direction has forced the EU to take a novel approach to understanding the relationship between public action and the innovation process at both the national and European level.

The author has a good grip both on the political and economic aspects of innovation policy, which makes it possible for her to draw out the crucial dilemmas for European policymakers, as well as the difficulties in finding easy solutions to these dilemmas. She covers different fields that are normally not treated in one common context such as knowledge creation, intellectual property rights, the information society, standard setting and risk assessment. The truly interdisciplinary approach and the broad coverage make this volume quite unique.' -- Bengt-Ake Lundvall, Aalborg University, Denmark 'This book reveals common patterns of change as many, seemingly unrelated, areas of innovation policy are increasingly conducted at the European level. The multi-disciplinary approach allows the subject matter to be analysed with subtlety and depth, and the result will appeal to specialists and generalists alike. This represents a major contribution to the innovation policy literature that combines analytical insight with empirical depth.' -- Paul Nightingale, University of Sussex, UK Author InformationSusana Borrás, Professor of Innovation and Governance, Head of Department of Business and Politic, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
