商品描述

This book discusses the role of inclusive innovation for development in rural India. It uses the evidence of innovation in the context of skewed or limited livelihood options and multiple knowledge systems to argue that if inclusive innovation is to happen, the actors and the nature of the innovation system need reform. The book presents cases of substantive technological changes and institutional reforms enabling inclusive innovation in rural manufacturing, sustainable agriculture, health services, and the processes of technological learning in traditional informal networks, as well as in formal modern commodity markets. These cases offer lessons to enable learning and change within the state and formal science and technology (S&T) organizations. By focusing on these actors central to development economics and innovation systems framework, the book bridges the widening conceptual gaps between these two parallel knowledge domains, and offers options for action by several actors to enable inclusive innovation systems. The content is thus of value to a wide audience consisting of researchers, policy makers, NGOs and industry observers.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討了包容性創新在印度農村發展中的角色。它利用在有限或不平衡的生計選擇及多元知識體系背景下的創新證據，主張如果要實現包容性創新，則需要對參與者及創新系統的性質進行改革。本書呈現了在農村製造業、可持續農業、健康服務以及傳統非正式網絡和正式現代商品市場中的技術學習過程中，促進包容性創新的實質性技術變革和制度改革案例。這些案例提供了在國家及正式科學與技術（S&T）組織內部促進學習和變革的教訓。通過聚焦於這些對發展經濟學和創新系統框架至關重要的參與者，本書彌合了這兩個平行知識領域之間日益擴大的概念差距，並為多個參與者提供了促進包容性創新系統的行動選擇。因此，該內容對於研究人員、政策制定者、非政府組織及行業觀察者等廣泛受眾具有價值。
