As countries around the world find themselves grappling with sociotechnological shifts--the Fourth Industrial Revolution--science, technology, and innovation policy (STI) is at the intersection of local and global challenges. The authors of Innovation Policy at the Intersection call for a comprehensive rethinking of STI policy in order to meet those challenges. Highlighting the experiences of a broad spectrum of countries around the world, they identify the need for a coherent, systemic approach that brings together the global and the local, the theoretical and the practical.
