Theoretical and empirical analyses of whether open innovations in
international development instrumentally advantages poor and
marginalized populations. Over the last ten years, open
innovations--the sharing of information without access restrictions
or cost--have emerged within international development. But do
these practices instrumentally advantage poor and marginalized
populations? This book examines whether, for whom, and under what
circumstances the free, networked, public sharing of information
and communication resources contributes (or not) towards a process
of positive social transformation. The contributors offer both
theoretical and empirical analyses that cover a broad range of
applications, emphasizing the underlying aspects of open
innovations that are shared across contexts and domains.
