National Innovation Systems (NIS) approaches argue that flows of technology and information among people, enterprises and institutions are paramount to the innovative processes in modern societies. While NIS approaches have primarily stemmed from economic research, innovation scholars increasingly see a need to broaden this perspective by incorporating institutional accounts of national settings borne by meso- and micro-sociological preconditions of knowledge production in institutional contexts.
This workshop aims at re-framing the concept of NIS, and applying it to the case of Germany, for which an impeding system and interplay of educational, financial, economic, scientific and political institutions have been diagnosed. According to the results, we will ideally discuss the need and timeliness for a new research agenda on NIS.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
