The governance of change in socio-technical and innovation systems: three pillars for a conceptual framework

Susana Borrás () and Jakob Edler

Chapter 2 in The Governance of Socio-Technical Systems, 2014, pp 23-48 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Examining the 'who' (agents), 'how' (policy instruments) and 'why' (societal legitimacy) of the governance process, this book presents a conceptual framework about the governance of change in socio-technical systems. Bridging the gap between disciplinary fields, expert contributions provide innovative empirical cases of different modes of governing change. The Governance of Socio-Technical Systems offers a stepping-stone towards building a theory of governance of change and presents a new research agenda on the interaction between science, technology and society.
