This book presents a broad overview of the multifaceted phenomena
of innovation networks, which have assumed increasing importance
with the emergence of the so-called 'knowledge economy'. The topic
of innovation networks is analysed through different lenses,
bringing together the theory of self-organisation, complexity
theory and recent developments in the economic and sociological
literature on innovation. The aim of the book is the integration of
these different perspectives in order to develop a common theory of
innovation networks. In this respect, a general model of innovation
networks is applied to different industrial sectors such as the
biotechnology industry, the telecommunications industry, and
knowledge-intensive business systems which form the backbone of the
internet economy. By combining empirical case studies with
theoretical work on the emergence of innovation networks, the
authors are able to identify the mechanisms and circumstances which
can contribute to their successful development and evaluation.
Innovation Networks is the result of a two year collaboration
between academics from a range of different disciplines including
theoretical physics, political science, computer science, sociology
and economics. As such, it will appeal to students, scholars and
researchers in all of these fields as well as business and R&D
managers, and policymakers and politicians involved in the
promotion of technology policy.
