Bedingungen lokaler Innovationen

Some cities manage to mobilise innovation potential and respond to challenges such as demographic change, immigration or economic restructuring, while others do not. This book addresses the question: What are the conditions for the development of local innovation? Rather than primarily searching for the conditions under which local innovation can develop among economic, social or institutional circumstances, it focuses on the communicative interactions through which actors develop a locally embedded understanding or knowledge of these conditions and the constraints and opportunities they present.
