Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
The fellowship project researched how different East Asian countries organize their innovation policies; and especially, how they maintain dynamic policy capacities to respond to techno-economic developments and socio-economic challenges.
In the first stage during FY 2015, an original analytical framework; an evolutionary approach to analyzing state and policy capacities; was developed that looks at the main potential factors (from the perspective of the evolutionary theory) influencing the success of innovation policy, both in terms of coming up with novel policy ideas (innovation in policy) and implementing them with desired impact (supporting innovation through policy): the routines and capacities of innovation policy organizations, the location and autonomy of these organizations in a policy system, organizational variety (of routines and capacities) of the specific national policy systems. This framework was developed for carrying out the case studies of this project. The results of this stage were presented at the DRUID Asia Conference in Singapore, published as a working paper and will be published as a book chapter in 2017.
