Innovation and Globalisation: A Systems of Innovation Perspective

In: The Handbook of Globalisation, Second Edition

Author

Listed:
  • Jeremy Howells

Abstract

With contributions from the leading commentators in the field and an over-arching introduction from the editor, the concerns of this updated and revised Handbook are two-fold. Firstly, to redefine the concept of globalisation and dispel the haze that surrounds it through a systematic and thorough examination of the debate. Secondly, to advance the frontiers of current critical thinking on the role and impact of globalisation, on the winners and losers in the process, and on the implications for society, the economy and governance.
