Abstract

The purpose of this article is to discuss the relevance of the innovation systems in terms of the economic growth rates along the last two centuries. The main focus is to shed light on the interrelationship (or its absence) between the social subsystems that are compounded of the dominant ideological system, the juridical political system and of the normative legal one, that defend the property and its uses, and the modes of the active apprenticeship of the productive subsystems in the developing countries. The present paper argues about the variations in the growth rates in different economic regions and at which point these variations can be attributed to the innovation systems. The analysis is to be applied to the XVIII century United Kingdom’s Industrial Revolution and to the United States of the second half of the XIX, and finally to the innovation systems of the developing countries in the XX century.
