| Abstract: | This paper argues that the time is now ripe for a move towards more multi-level, interdisciplinary research. The early part of the paper reviews the literature on innovation and finds thematic and conceptual convergence across levels and disciplines around the relationship between innovative activity and institutional context and the nature of the innovation process itself. This convergence, the paper concludes, indicates the opportunity for multi-level, interdisciplinary research and points the way towards the kind of framework based on systems thinking, learning theory and dynamic analysis, through which such research might be pursued. |
