Popis: Although both innovation and law are omnipresent, legal innovation research in Germany is quite new and developing. However, this discipline can expect little support from other areas of innovation research, which is why the law is dependent on itself. Law is often understood as an obstacle to innovation, which is not right. The law has a considerable responsibility towards innovation, which is based on the constitution and which serves the common welfare. One example is the German healthcare system with its new law on digitalization. On the basis of two examples the following chapter shows how law can shape external innovation and implement internal innovation.
