1 Oslo Summer School in Comparative Social Science Studies 2009 Studying Research Work, Innovations and Innovation Policy Lecturer: Professor Reijo Miettinen, Center for Activity Theory and Developmental Work Research, University of Helsinki, Finland Main disciplines: Innovation Studies, Sociology, STS, Policy Studies Dates: 3-7 August 2009 Course Credits: 10 pts (ECTS) Limitation: 30 participants Introduction The objective of the course is to compare the contribution and methods of three broad theoretical traditions in the study of technical change, innovations and innovation policy. They are 1) Evolutionary economics of innovations (and the National innovation approach based on it), 2) Science and technology studies (STS) (especially actor network theory) as well as 3) two theories of practice: Culturalhistorical activity theory and Deweyan pragmatism. In addition to these traditions the rhetorical analysis of technology policy language is discussed. Each of these traditions also use different and complementary methodological approaches: quantitative and comparative institutional (evolutionary economics), qualitative/ethnographical (STS) and qualitative change-oriented or interventionist approaches (practice theories). In each lecture, both a substantial and theoretical issue related to innovations and innovation policy as well as a methodological theme related to qualitative (case) research will be discussed. Also the relevance of qualitative studies for policymaking will be discussed. Six first lectures deals with qualitative studies of scientific work and innovations. Four last lections deals with the foundations of innovation policy and the contribution of different approaches to this policy.
2 Essential readings: Cambrosio, A. & Keating, P. (1995). Exquisite specificity. The monoclonal antibody revolution. New York: Oxford University Press. Miettinen & Hasu & Saari: A collection of papers on research work, innovations and creativity. Package prepared for the course participants. Miettinen, Reijo Rhetoric and practice in innovation policy. Lessons from Finland. Manuscript of a forthcoming book. LECTURE OUTLINE In addition to the core reading recommended, complementary readings are listed for each lecture. Complementary reading have been commented in core readings and will be discussed during the lectures. They also supply alternative and complementary viewpoints to those of the core readings. Complementary readings not available in the Internet will be supplied to the students beforehand. Lecture 1: The functions of case studies in science, technology and innovation studies The different functions case studies have played in Science and technology studies and innovation studies will be analyzed. Cambrosio and Keating s study on Monoclonal antibody revolution is used to illustrate the versatility of possibilities. The problem of novelty and change immanent to the concept of innovation is discusses as a problem faced by qualitative studies. Cambrosio, A. & Keating, P. (1995). Exquisite specificity.
