This book aims to disentangle the complex relationship between
innovation and its potential determinants, paying special attention
to the roles of governance and regulatory frameworks, and the ways
in which the latter interact with other drivers of innovation such
as competition and the innovator's closeness to the technology
frontier.The contributors provide theoretically grounded and
empirically-rich findings indicating that governance and regulation
affect innovation directly and indirectly through interaction with
other drivers of innovation. The direct effects are positive in the
case of governance quality and prescriptive regulations that set
standards for compliance. However, the direct effects of corporate
governance are not uniform and depend on the corporate governance
dimension under investigation. The authors demonstrate that the
direct effects are only part of the story. Both governance and
regulatory standards interact with the level of competition and the
distance to the technology frontier that may have complementary or
offsetting effects. Overall, the findings in the book indicate that
the relationship between innovation and its potential determinants
is more complex and hence calls for more nuanced policy design
compared to what is assumed in policy statements by national and
international policy actors. This thought-provoking book will
provide a stimulating read for a wide-ranging audience, including
scholars and researchers in the fields of economics, industrial
organization, public policy and innovation studies. Contributors:
