This book offers a comprehensive overview of current developments
in the field of Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI). Divided
into three parts, the book first presents reflections on the
concept of RI from various angles: how did it come about, who is
involved and how might in be applied in various contexts, such as
the academic environment or in developing countries. The second
part discusses the actual application of RRI to technology
development: for climate engineering, water management and energy
technology along with a general discussion on how to integrate RRI
in innovation trajectories. The last part offers a closer look at
the application of RRI to the business context. This part offers
lessons from comparable concepts such as social and sustainability
innovation as well as insights from two case-studies, one in the
food sector and the other in data management. As a whole, the book
contributes to the ongoing development of the framework of RRI by
giving an overview of the state-of-the art research, presenting the
lessons learned from several case studies, and showing the way for
future application of RI in other fields and cultural contexts,
such as industry and developing countries.

This book addresses the methodological issues involved in
responsible innovation andĀ provides anĀ overview of
recent applications of multidisciplinary research. Responsible
innovation involves research into the ethical and societal aspects
of new technologies (e.g. ICT, nanotechnology, biotechnology and
brain sciences) and of changes in technological systems (e.g.
energy, transport, agriculture and water). This research is highly
multidisciplinary. It involves close collaboration between
researchers in such diverse fields as ethics, social science, law,
economics, applied science, engineering - as well as innovative,
design-oriented and policy-relevant. Although there is a trend to
engage ethicists and social scientists early in technology
development, most literature in the field of Technology Assessment
or Ethics of Technology is still aimed at one discipline whereas
this book incorporates different approaches and to discuss
experiences, lessons and more general theoretical issues.
This book discusses issues regarding conceptualization, governance
and implementation of responsible innovation. It treats different
approaches to making responsible innovation a reality and it
contains new case studies that illustrate challenges and solutions.
Research on Responsible Innovation is by its nature highly
multidisciplinary, and also pro-active, design-oriented and
policy-relevant. Until a few years back, the concept of Responsible
Innovation was hardly used - nowadays it is increasingly receiving
attention from both researchers and policy makers. This is
indispensable reading for anyone interested in or working on
innovation.
