This book applies ideas and methods from the complexity perspective
to key concerns in the social sciences, exploring co-evolutionary
processes that have not yet been addressed in the technical or
popular literature on complexity. Authorities in a variety of
fields - including evolutionary economics, innovation and
regeneration studies, urban modelling and history - re-evaluate
their disciplines within this framework. The book explores the
complex dynamic processes that give rise to socio-economic change
over space and time, with reference to empirical cases including
the emergence of knowledge-intensive industries and decline of
mature regions, the operation of innovative networks and the
evolution of localities and cities. Sustainability is a persistent
theme and the practicability of intervention is examined in the
light of these perspectives. Specialists in disciplines that
include economics, evolutionary theory, innovation, industrial
manufacturing, technology change, and archaeology will find much to
interest them in this book. In addition, the strong
interdisciplinary emphasis of the book will attract a
non-specialist audience interested in keeping abreast of current
theoretical and methodological approaches through evidence-based
and practical examples.
