The book describes and analyses the new environment for innovation,
it does this with an emphasis on yet uncharted regions within the
field of practice-based innovation, coming up with guidelines for
innovation policy measures needed in order to realise this. While
it focuses on these policies it also takes into account multi-actor
innovation processes, user-driven innovation, "related variety" and
many other aspects; aspects such as, just to name a few:
communicating creative processes and distributing practice-based
innovation; then there is creativity itself, encompassing new
fields of knowledge and expertise. The authors go on to describe
value networks, showing how to make practice-based innovations,
explaining innovation diffusion and absorptive capacity. The book
presents new insights as well as the latest research related to the
frequently used term "innovation". Definitions are put forward,
giving, by way of examples, a detailed description of concepts we
draw upon when using these. Innovation as a concept is constantly
being subdivided into increasingly finer distinctions, which, in
turn, determine the discourse. The book takes a close look at
these, further taking into account the challenges as well as the
opportunities inherent in developing practice-based innovation
procedures and policies of global importance, never losing sight of
advancing long-term effectiveness.
