En este trabajo, se retoma la teoría de la administración pública para, en primer lugar, señalar las diferencias entre los laboratorios y los think-tanks y las consultorías, y, en segundo, se hace un análisis de las características de tres laboratorios ubicados en Argentina, Chile y México para identificar aquellas que resultan distintivas. Entre ellas se encuentran el desarrollo de políticas públicas más colaborativas y centradas en los ciudadanos, la captación de talento humano especializado y el uso de metodologías mixtas para la resolución de problemas públicos. Hacia futuro, el reto es lograr la sostenibilidad de los laboratorios, tanto en términos de su relevancia para la hechura de políticas, como financiera.","PeriodicalId":52361,"journal":{"name":"European Public and Social Innovation Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41677054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

New ideas and new practical models are developed for socio-economic purposes. The vision of entrepreneurs evolves because the first reflections have been centered on the idea of the individual and his behavior which can only be revealed by him, but companies can concretize new cases of innovation. The term ‘entrepreneurship’ has become a bit old-fashioned; the new style of managerial behavior is called ‘the culture of Inno-preneurs’. This study is based on a theoretical framework and on a conceptual, analytical methodology for tackling the subject of Inno-preneurs in a deep way (concept and definitions, characteristics, leadership, roles in organizations v. entrepreneurship, culture and behavioral spirit of innovation, models, real cases) and finally it proposes a practical model.","PeriodicalId":52361,"journal":{"name":"European Public and Social Innovation Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45435467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is especially relevant in cases aimed at meeting social groups with few resources, such as people in poverty. This paper examines this in the case of Neighborhood Healthcare Centers in Belgium, a social innovation with potential to offer accessible care to less resourceful inhabitants. It documents how these organizations made an effort to expand but were met with sustained resistance of doctors’ associations and political opponents. It concludes that the inherent merits of social innovations which benefit vulnerable groups are insufficient to warrant their diffusion, as initiatives might run against the interests of more powerful groups.","PeriodicalId":52361,"journal":{"name":"European Public and Social Innovation Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48818923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Solutions for these problems require far-reaching changes and new and untried approaches. Social Innovation (SI) could be a significant factor in tackling the challenges to come. The ‘reflection on the long-term effects of social innovations’ is a relatively new topic but is attracting growing interest. While technology assessments are regularly used to study the consequences of technical innovations, similar assessments for social innovations are rare. This paper explores and analyses the current state of theoretical, conceptual work on the assessment for SI and their consequences, related concepts, and relevant activities. Perspectives and options for further developments in this field are derived. The method used is a structured literature review. The results show that scientific research concerning the assessment of the consequences of social innovations seems to be still in its infancy. The boundaries between established topics (such as sustainability, user orientation, including social entrepreneurship) and newer concepts are fluid. However, alongside the different approaches and views, a certain convergence of perspectives with regard to the consequences and effects of (social) innovations can be observed. Similar questions and issues are dealt with using similar approaches and methods, and are sometimes confronted with similar obstacles.","PeriodicalId":52361,"journal":{"name":"European Public and Social Innovation Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49043708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Como resultado de ello, las consecuencias son negativas tanto para las personas como para el exito de la adopcion de tecnologia. Para supervisar y considerar tanto los aspectos sociales como organizativos en la adopcion de tecnologia, es util contar con un modelo de impacto de la variable tecnologica en las organizaciones.
