Описание:
As the economies of western countries move from primarily resource-based to knowledge-based, and trade liberalization limits what governments can do through direct action, the landscape of innovation is changing and policymakers must react accordingly. This exciting new book examines the challenges that policy makers face in responding to a new environment. The book addresses how governments are now seeking to drive innovation through new forms of R&D policies, through public procurement, skills development, entrepreneurship and innovation culture to name but a few of the approaches.
Innovation Policy Challenges for the 21st Century
explores these and other contemporary issues in innovation, reviewing the state of the art literature and consolidating current thinking at the frontiers of innovation. The volume debates and presents scattered and anonymous material in a coherent way, with a particular focus is on 'hot topics' in the field of innovation studies that have been previously under-researched. The book is divided into four key themes: government as a key actor in the innovation process, entrepreneurs as innovators, skills and competences required to maintain and improve innovation performance in Europe and finally, the wider context in which innovation policy develops.

Описание: The Commercialisation of English Society offers an interpretation of social and economic change in England over five centuries. This pioneering study examines both institutional and economic transformation and the social changes that resulted and stresses the limited importance of formal trading institutions for the development of local trade.
Описание: This book addresses two of the principal subjects of economic history: why did some parts of the world achieve sustained economic growth and prosperity, while most other regions did not; and how did the form of sustained economic growth within the socio-economic system we can call ‘capitalism’ originate. The book jointly explores the origins of capitalism and the causes of the so-called ‘Great Divergence’. It considers political and institutional differences in connection to divergences in economic ideology, and the various non-economic influences on human aspirations that influence economic behaviour. It also argues that the present moment in economic development is not the inevitable outcome of the course of history, showing that the paths not taken in world history might have something to teach us.

Описание: This open access book is about understanding the processes involved in the transformation of smallholder rice farming in the Lower Mekong Basin from a low-yielding subsistence activity to one producing the surpluses needed for national self-sufficiency and a high-value export industry. For centuries, farmers in the Basin have regarded rice as "white gold", reflecting its centrality to their food security and well-being. In the past four decades, rice has also become a commercial crop of great importance to Mekong farmers, augmenting but not replacing its role in securing their subsistence. This book is based on collaborative research to (a) compare the current situation and trajectories of rice farmers within and between different regions of the Lower Mekong, (b) explore the value chains linking rice farmers with new technologies and input and output markets within and across national borders, and (c) understand the changing role of government policies in facilitating the on-going evolution of commercial rice farming. An introductory section places the research in geographical and historical context. Four major sections deal in turn with studies of rice farming, value chains, and policies in Northeast Thailand, Central Laos, Southeastern Cambodia, and the Mekong Delta. The final section examines the implications for rice policy in the region as a whole.

Описание: Examining the commercialization of accountancy, this book finds it directly related to the shift by capital away from the consensus it had entered into with labour during the post-war boom. It argues that this transformation polarized the class-structure of the advanced economies.
