Abstract: This paper aims at contributing to the discussion of the theoretical construction of the neo-Schumpeterian approach to technical and economic change. First, the fundamentals of this approach, based on analogies to evolutionary concepts of the biological sciences, are presented. Second, we show how neo-Schumpeterian thinking in recent literature has evolved beyond such analogies by integrating the concept of self-organization as the explanatory factor of the dynamic and evolving character of economic systems. Finally, some implications of the new perspective for the new-Schumpeterian research agenda are identified.
