Description:

Based upon empirical material, this book shows how and why competence building and innovation are crucial for economic growth and competitiveness in the 2010s. It also provides a case study of a small, very successful European country, Denmark, combining wealth creation with social cohesion. The comparative analysis of innovation systems demonstrates that the new economy can thrive and grow not only in the US-type of economy but also in European economies which exhibit a high degree of social cohesion.
