‘National Systems of Innovation’ presents a new perspective on the dynamics of the national and the global economy. Its starting point is that the international competitiveness of nations is founded on innovation. Which role do different parts of the national system play in determining the long-term dynamics of the economy? What is happening to the coherence of national systems of innovation in an era characterised by far-reaching internationalisation and globalisation?
These and other issues are addressed in this volume. Available for the first time in paperback, the book is an invaluable resource for scholars and policy-makers.
Bengt-Åke Lundvall graduated with an MA in Economics from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. He is currently Professor at the Department of Business Studies at Aalborg University, Denmark and at Sciences-Po in Paris, France.
