	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Innovation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Innovation is the implementation of a new or significantly improved idea, good, service, process or practice which is intended to be useful.
		Innovation is an important topic in the study economics, business, sociology, and other social sciences.
		Innovation in business is achieved in many ways, with much attention now given to formal research and development for "breakthrough innovations." But innovations may be developed by less formal on-the-job modifications of practice, through exchange and combination of professional experience and by many other routes.

		Innovation is the implementation of a new or significantly improved idea, good, service, process or practice that is intended to be useful.
		Scholars who have studied innovation generally differentiate among five main types of innovation: product innovation, process innovation, organizational innovation, marketing innovation and business model innovation.
		Organizational innovation (also referred to as social innovation) involves the creation of new organizations, business practices, ways of running organizations or new organizational behavior.

		However, there is no theoretical reason why technology and skills need be complementary and indeed concepts of directed technological change or induced innovation would suggest that in the presence of relatively high skill premiums, technological advance would be skill saving rather than skill using.
		The argument for doing so is that a high but unchanging level of educational attainment should contribute to growth by facilitating creativity, innovation and adaptation to change as well as facilitating the ongoing maintenance and improvement of skill in the workforce.
		This could be viewed as applying specifically to scientific and technical innovation as in Mokyr (2002) and Jones (2002) â€" but also to technological and industrial leadership more generally (Nelson and Wright 1992) and to facilitating advancement in society by ability irrespective of social origins (Galor and Tsiddon 1997).

		Closely related to this argument is the early work of Geertz (1963) on "agricultural involution" and the "induced innovation" analysis of Ruttan and his collaborators (Binswanger and Ruttan 1978; Hayami and Ruttan 1987a, b; see also the classic treatment by Hicks (1932) and its revival by Fellner (1961) and Kennedy (1964)).
		He also does not cite any of the key work on induced innovation even though that work provides a rigorous model for some of the effects he posits.
