Since the early 2000s, state-led and innovation-focused strategies have characterized the approach to development pursued in countries around the world, such as China, India, and South Korea. Brazil, the largest and most industrialized economy in Latin America, demonstrates both the opportunities and challenges of this approach. Over the course of nearly 20 years, the Brazilian government enacted various policies and programs designed to strengthen the country's capacity to innovate. It increased spending on science and technology, encouraged greater collaboration between industry and universities, and fostered the creation of new institutions whose primary aim was to facilitate greater private research and development (R&D) spending.
In this book, the editors unite a diverse array of empirical contributions around a few key themes, including public policies, institutions and innovation ecosystems, and firms and industries, that collectively make the case for a new, forward-looking innovation agenda aimed at addressing persistent challenges and exploiting emerging opportunities in Brazil. Its conclusions offer valuable lessons for other developing and emerging economies seeking to accelerate innovation and growth in the modern age.
With its interdisciplinary and wide-ranging contribution to the study of innovation, as well as attention to broader policy implications, this book will appeal to scholars and professionals alike.

Hardback. Etat : New. 350 pages. Elisabeth B. Reynolds, Ben Ross Schneider and Ezequiel Zylberberg bring together a volume of chapters by several contributors on how Brazil can turn innovation into a source of development. It opens with an introduction on the country's challenges and opportunities. Part I covers the political economy of innovation. It maps a fragmented set of institutions, including state-owned enterprises, and shows how politics and appointed officials shape policy. It also looks at success stories in aerospace, flex fuel, soybeans and deep-water oil, and at the recent EMBRAPII model. Later chapters cover global value chains, science policy and innovation policy since 2003, and the institutional side of policy-making. Others offer a way of classifying innovation intermediaries beyond research and technology organization benchmarks, and question the "Silicon Valley consensus."
