This book is open access under a CC BY license. Interest in social
innovation continues to rise, from governments setting up social
innovation 'labs' to large corporations developing social
innovation strategies. Yet theory lags behind practice, and this
hampers our ability to understand social innovation and make the
most of its potential. This collection brings together work by
leading social innovation researchers globally, exploring the
practice and process of researching social innovation, its nature
and effects. Combining theoretical chapters and empirical studies,
it shows how social innovation is blurring traditional boundaries
between the market, the state and civil society, thereby developing
new forms of services, relationships and collaborations. It takes a
critical perspective, analyzing potential downsides of social
innovation that often remain unexplored or are glossed over, yet
concludes with a powerful vision of the potential for social
innovation to transform society. It aims to be a valuable resource
for students and researchers, as well as policymakers and others
supporting and leading social innovation.
