Abstract
Although recent theoretical approaches to
economic growth pronounce without exception the crucial role of
innovation for economic development, employment and prosperity,
and refer in this regard in an widespread and rarely seen
harmony to the pioneering works of Joseph A. Schumpeter, it
must nonetheless be noticed, that the Schumpterian growth
paradigm does still play in economic theory and policy at best
a shadowy existence. Contrary to the Schumpeterian
?innovation logic of economic growth? common
approaches to economic or regional development can be regarded
to be concepts in which there is no particular attention given
to creative entrepreneurship. Common growth theories do clearly
follow an ?input logic of growth?, by which is
meant, that economic growth (in regions) is seen to be the
outcome of prior factor accumulation. In the centre of
attention is the theoretical and empirical fusion of the
Schumpeterian innovation and growth logic with modern systems
theory, especially with the autopoiesis concept. Showing that
regional innovation systems have an autopoietic, i.e.
self-producing und -preserving character and that creative
entrepreneurs and their competences are the driving forces in
the continuing reproduction process of innovations by
innovations, regional development appears to be an endogenous
phenomenon, i.e., growth is caused through local actors only
and is not dependent on financial help from outside the region.
In order to show, that functioning regional innovation systems
are subjected to an autopoietic kind of operation, the book
tackles among many other the following questions: ·What is the
difference between innovation and input logic of growth? ·What
is meant by entrepreneurial competence and what kind of role
does it play in the innovation process? ·What are the learning
processes making up for a ?learning region?? ·What
are the (typical) institutional ingredients of growth regions?
·What kind of role does Schumpeterian entrepreneurship play in
creating institutions fostering the regional innovation and
growth process? ·How do trust relationships leading to stable
inter firm cooperation and regional networks evolve? ·In how
far has network entrepreneurship hereby to play an important
role? ·What is the contribution of financial entrepreneurship
to the establishment of autopoietic local finance cycles? ·What
are the crucial characteristics of an ?entrepreneurial
university?? ·What are the main principles for economic
policy making when following the insights of autopoietic
systems theory?
