This volume brings together eminent international scholars to discuss and analyze regional and national technology and innovation policies from an economic assessment or economic impacts perspective. The analysis covers policies relevant to countries in Europe and Asia, and the United States. Not only might this volume initiate further study of technology and innovation policies, on a country-by-country basis, but also it might open doors for comparative policy analysis. This book was originally published as a special issue of Economics of Innovation and New Technology.

This essay has implied that there are positive, potential benefits to be derived from accurate, timely evaluations of innovation. We should also note the negative side of the same coin, the opportunity costs wasted by poor evaluation in terms of failing to terminate unwarranted projects until they become obvious. These 'costs' can be economic (cost overruns), technological (the neglect of other, more promising technologies), or political (a public skepticism regarding technology). For both the positive and negative reasons, we are thus moved to the difficult task of having to review (and possibly revise) the innovation drama while it is still in production, before the final denouement has occurred. This charter - although not easily fulfilled from an analytic perspective - and the conditions alluded to above should motivate the evaluator of the on-going innovation process with sufficient cause (some might claim urgency) to explore in greater detail some of the notions presented above.

Innovation underpins competitiveness, is crucial to addressing societal challenges, and its support has become a major public policy goal. But what really works in innovation policy, and why? This Handbook, compiled by leading experts in the field, is the first comprehensive guide to understanding the logic and effects of innovation polices. The Handbook develops a conceptualisation and typology of innovation policies, presents meta-evaluations for 16 key innovation policy instruments and analyses evidence on policy-mix. For each policy instrument, underlying rationales and examples are presented, along with a critical analysis of the available impact evidence. Providing access to primary sources of impact analysis, the book offers an insightful assessment of innovation policy practice and its evaluation.

The worst economic crisis since the Great Depression has generated a fundamental re-evaluation of the free-market policies that have dominated American politics for three decades. State of Innovation brings together critical essays looking at the 'innovation industry' in the context of the current crisis. The book shows how government programs and policies have underpinned technological innovation in the US economy over the last four decades, despite the strength of 'free market' political rhetoric. The contributors provide new insights into where innovations come from and how governments can support a dynamic innovation economy as the US recovers from a profound economic crisis. State of Innovation outlines a 21st century policy paradigm that will foster cutting-edge innovation which remains accountable to the public.
