The main purpose of the book is to discuss new trends in the
dynamic geography of innovation and argue that in an era of
increasing globalization, two trends seem quite dominant: rigid
territorial models of innovation, and localized configurations of
innovative activities. The book brings together scholars who are
working on these topics. Rather than focusing on established
concepts and theories, the book aims to question narrow
explanations, rigid territorializations, and simplistic policy
frameworks; it provides evidence that innovation, while not
exclusively dependent on regional contexts, can be influenced by
place-specific attributes. The book will bring together new
empirical and conceptual work by an interdisciplinary group of
leading scholars from areas such as economic geography, innovation
studies, and political science. Based on recent discussions
surrounding innovation systems of different types, it aims to
synthesize state-of-the-art know-how and provide new perspectives
on the role of innovation and knowledge creation in the global
political economy.
