Abstract

Purpose

The paper positions social and technological innovation as pivotal counterforces to conservative resistance against change, particularly in light of the recurrent economic and technological upheavals characterizing the present shape of capitalism.

Design/methodology/approach

The research adopts a qualitative methodology, rooted in a comparative case study approach, offering a critical retrospective analysis of societal disruptions and transformations. Central to this methodological framework is the construct of sensemaking, which is characterized as the process by which collective entities retrospectively develop plausible narratives that rationalize their experiences. The approach is informed by the dynamics of socio-ecological systems, which are understood to undergo cyclical phases of growth, stabilization, collapse, and regeneration.

Findings

The study shows evidence that resilience and adaptability are more authentically gauged by socio-technological responses to cyclical disruptions and recoveries. It delineates sensemaking as a crucial socioecological mechanism through which elicitation emerges and societies and organizations navigate these cycles, forging shared narratives from collective experiences that are driven by plausibility rather than mere accuracy.

Practical implications

The research calls for the development of policies that synthesize disruptive innovations with strategies for social cohesion. Such policies must ensure the protection of the socioeconomic texture from implicit structural precariousness arising from innovation. The ability to integrate and institutionalize change is emphasized as crucial, demanding a synergy between innovative creativity, new normative frameworks, and the preservation of fundamental societal values.

Originality/value

The paper challenges reductionist technological interpretations of societal changes, advocating for a holistic perspective that accounts for the redistributive and elicitation roles as vital to the evolution of socio-economic systems. The value of this research lies in its comprehensive framing of these transformations, underscoring the importance of a multi-faceted understanding in the effective management of socioeconomic change.

揭开启发的面纱:跨越资本主义表征创新的社会生态感知驱动路径
本文将社会和技术创新定位为抵制保守主义变革的关键力量,尤其是考虑到当前资本主义形态所特有的经常性经济和技术动荡。这一方法论框架的核心是 "感性认识 "这一概念,其特点是集体实体回顾性地发展合理化其经历的可信叙事的过程。该方法借鉴了社会生态系统的动力学原理,据了解,社会生态系统会经历增长、稳定、崩溃和再生等周期性阶段。研究结果该研究表明,社会技术对周期性破坏和恢复的反应更能真实地衡量复原力和适应性。该研究将 "感性认识 "描述为一种重要的社会生态机制,通过这种机制,社会和组织可以在这些周期中激发灵感,并从集体经验中形成共同的叙事,而这种叙事的驱动力是合理性而非单纯的准确性。这些政策必须确保社会经济结构免受创新带来的隐性结构不稳定性的影响。论文强调,整合变革并使之制度化的能力至关重要,要求在创新创造力、新规范框架和维护基本社会价值观之间形成合力。这项研究的价值在于全面阐述了这些变革,强调了多方面理解对于有效管理社会经济变革的重要性。

期刊介绍: The subject of innovation is receiving increased interest both from companies because of their increased awareness of the impact of innovation in determining market success and also from the research community. Academics are increasingly beginning to place innovation as a priority area in their research agenda. This impetus has been partly fuelled by the Economic & Social Research Council (ESRC) who have designated innovation as one of nine research areas in their research initiative schemes.
