Chapter 1 in Driving Complexity in Economic Development, 2023, pp 1-12 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter introduces the book, its structure, and scope. It departs from the motivation around economic development as a mystery, which is somehow solved by entrepreneurship and innovation as key gears within the complex engine. The chapter suggests that the formation of entrepreneurial and innovative activities is dependent on the institutional setting that countries possess. As different variables take place at the same time, institutional economics is complemented with system thinking through the introduction of socio-technical subsystems. The book, therefore, explores all these elements separately and jointly to provide theoretical contributions and empirical evidence useful for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers.
