Innovations: Technology / Governance / Globalization

Innovations: Technology / Governance / Globalization

http://mitpress.mit.edu/itgg

Publisher: MIT Press

Innovations is the only academic journal of its kind. The most widely read
academic journals dealing with the interaction of technology and governance
take a 30,000-foot view of both policy challenges and proposed policy
solutions. Rarely do academic analyses of global policy challenges begin by
looking at innovations. Rarely do practitioner-focused narratives seriously
address innovations in their global context. Innovations does both.

The audience for Innovations is a broad community of change agents. The
content in Innovations brings together accounts (narratives), accounting
(indicators), and accountability (governance). Innovations will be of
interest to public servants whose method is entrepreneurial, and
entrepreneurs whose projects have a public conscience; innovators interested
in analysis, and scholars interested in innovations.

Each issue of Innovations analyzes best local practices in a global context.
Innovations is based on two simple premises. The first: while culture and
economics do create significant differences among populations, creativity is
a characteristic shared by people everywhere. The second: while many
pressing societal challenges are global, their solutions are local.
Innovations in one place can inform and inspire innovations elsewhere.
