This book uniquely applies the Schumpeterian innovation policy
perspective to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). A
broadly defined framework of the science, technology, innovation
and growth system underpins the empirical and conceptual analysis
of the critical issues including demand, FDI, finance and
education. Specifically, the expert contributors address the
(in)capacity of CEE to play a more significant role in the
knowledge-based competitiveness of the EU. They question whether it
is possible to bolster this capacity with
innovation/technology/industry-specific policies, and discuss the
changes required at EU and individual country levels to remove
sector and industry specific obstacles to greater competitiveness
based on innovation. Policies are analyzed from the perspective of
growth, and the conclusions drawn are relevant to education, the
labor market and competition policy. This highly original, explicit
and systematic study will prove an illuminating read for academics,
researchers, students and policy makers focusing on a range of
areas including economics, heterodox economics, European studies,
technology and innovation. Contributors include: P. Aghion, J.
