This series of books brings together results of an intensive
research programme on aspects of the national systems of innovation
in the five BRICS countries - Brazil, Russia, India, China and
South Africa. It provides a comprehensive and comparative
examination of the challenges and opportunities faced by these
dynamic and emerging economies. In discussing the impact of
innovation with respect to economic, geopolitical, socio-cultural,
institutional and technological systems, it reveals the
possibilities of new development paradigms for equitable and
sustainable growth. This volume, first in the series, analyses the
relationship between the state and the evolution of the national
systems of innovation. Putting forward several valuable
considerations and policy recommendations, it argues that the
experiences and knowledge gathered here may deeply impact the way
we conceive of the theory of innovation systems, and implement
policies and strategies for their development. Original and
detailed data together with expert analyses by contributing authors
on wide-ranging issues will make this an invaluable resource for
researchers and scholars in economics, development studies and
political science, as well as for policy-makers and development
practitioners interested in the BRICS countries.

This significant book demonstrates how the 'systems of innovation'
approach can be utilised to understand the complex interactions
between innovation and growth which, in turn, can enhance the
prospects of developing nations.Systems of Innovation and
Development confronts the challenges and opportunities of the
knowledge era, focusing particularly on the new conditions for
industrial and technological advancement. The distinguished
contributors address many of the most significant issues including
the globalising learning economy, the finance-dominated
accumulation regime, learning and development divides, systems of
innovation and local productive arrangements. They also define the
conceptual and methodological instruments which can be used to
analyse and understand the core issues of learning, knowledge and
innovation. In doing so, they demonstrate the value of the systems
of innovation approach in the design and implementation of
strategic development policies which are urgently required in many
countries. This book represents a significant contribution to the
debates surrounding globalisation and local systems of innovation.
The diverse perspectives on global and local processes combined
with original insights on developing countries will be of immense
value to scholars and students of economics, social science,
political science, and business administration. The book will also
be of interest to policymakers in governmental and non-governmental
bodies, particularly international development agencies.
The book develops the idea that a shift in the techno-economic
paradigm creates opportunities for the rise of new firms,
industries and countries to technological leadership, making the
adoption of an adequate national system of innovation fundamental
to success in such changes. This task is supported by a case study
of how the Japanese System of Innovation has responded to the
advanced materials revolution of the last two decades as well as
diffusion of the information technology paradigm.
