Policy Perspectives on Innovation and Sustainable Development

Abstract

The book identifies the need for evidence-based policy making, but works more on addressing conceptualisation and operationalisation aspects alone to a greater extent and to a lesser extent normatively. To say that a one size fits all approach is criticised, conflicts with the ability to generate concrete understanding in some parts. The Book, however succeeds in crafting the contours of the Decentralised Model of Science and Innovation to the aim of establishing sustainability of development.
