Social Innovation and Territorial Development

'The concept of social innovation brings an important and timely perspective on societal organization and governance with and within communities. The chapters presenting case studies and narratives sit alongside multidisciplinary explorations of social innovation. This book weaves together significant strands in debates about economies and communities.' Nola Kunnen, Curtin University, Australia 'As we emerge from three decades of divisive neo-liberalism, four leading thinkers have assembled this inspirational book. It is both a shrewd theorization of development from below and an encouraging set of case studies showing how social needs and community resources have been the formative influences in local actions in a dozen countries. The book is an excellent and timely resource for local practitioners, civil servants, teachers and students.' Michael Edwards, University College London, UK
