Description

Innovation for the Masses: Balancing Progress with Equality in High-Tech Economies This book offers a fresh perspective on how cities and nations can harness innovation to create more equitable societies. Economist Neil Lee draws on case studies from Taiwan, Sweden, Austria, and Switzerland to explore successful models of distributing the benefits of high-tech economies. Lee argues that strong policies for innovation and mutual prosperity are closely linked, and that governments play an active role in creating frameworks to ensure that benefits are shared widely. By examining alternative models that prioritize equity, Lee sheds light on the roadblocks these models present and what other countries can learn from them. By exploring innovative approaches to fostering equality alongside progress, Innovation for the Masses provides a valuable insight into how high-tech economies can be developed in ways that benefit everyone.
