Tiivistelmä
Since the mid-197Os, the Finnish industrial structure has been rapidly moving from factor-driven towards technology-driven industries. Finland has become an internationalized, innovation based economy. Innovations and their commercial exploitation ultimately determine the success of enterprises in this type of economy. The economic analysis of innovation based economies needs different concepts and tools than the analysis of factor-driven economies. The focus of this book is on these new concepts and tools. There are few ready answers to be given. The new conceptual framework of e.g. evolutionary economics is still evolving. The concept of the national innovation system, which is aimed to replace the traditional concept of "national competitiveness", is still seeking its exact content.
