Abstract

ABSTRACT The present brief comment explores some of Christopher Freeman’s main ideas and their influence on my recent and current research. The concepts of broad and narrow National Systems of Innovation (NSI), regional systems of innovation and production networks are some of the main sources of inspiration for part of my works. Combined with a concern for development and social progress I have tried to understand how NSI relate and condition not only the outputs of innovation and economic growth but also their effect on social issues such as income inequality rates. Some evidence on the consequences of innovation on inequality is reviewed here, and some future lines of research regarding Global Value Chains (GVC) approaches are proposed.

创新与不平等现象的全球价值链视角

本文简要探讨了克里斯托弗·弗里曼的一些主要思想及其对我最近和当前研究的影响。广义和狭义的国家创新系统(NSI)、区域创新系统和生产网络的概念是我部分作品的一些主要灵感来源。结合对发展和社会进步的关注，我试图理解NSI如何联系和制约创新和经济增长的产出，以及它们对收入不平等率等社会问题的影响。本文回顾了创新对不平等影响的一些证据，并提出了关于全球价值链(GVC)方法的一些未来研究方向。

期刊介绍： conomic development and growth depend as much on social innovations as on technological advances. However, the discourse has often been confined to technological innovations in the industrial sector, with insufficient attention being paid to institutional and organisational change and to the informal sector which in some countries in the South plays a significant role. Innovation and Development is an interdisciplinary journal that adopts a broad approach to the study of innovation, in all sectors of the economy and sections of society, furthering understanding of the multidimensional process of innovation and development. It provides a forum for the discussion of issues pertaining to innovation, development and their interaction, both in the developed and developing world, with the aim of encouraging sustainable and inclusive growth. The journal encourages articles that approach the problem broadly in line with innovation system perspective focusing on the evolutionary and institutional structure of innovation and development. This focus cuts across the disciplines of Economics, Sociology, Political Science, Science and Technology Policy, Geography and Development Practice. In a section entitled Innovation in Practice, the journal includes short reports on innovative experiments with proven development impact with a view to encouraging scholars to undertake systematic inquiries on such experiments. Brief abstracts of degree awarded PhD theses in the broad area of concern for the journal and brief notes which highlight innovative ways of using internet resources and new databases or software are also published.
