Popis: The challenges of global societies exert huge pressure on the science community and policymakers to provide solutions that will assure sustainable development. This pressure is evident and results in rapid changes in the concept of innovation systems. These challenges extend beyond national state borders and call for, not only international, but also global action. In addition, it requires a wide range of different stakeholders looking for a multi-policy approach. This chapter presents changes and trends in our understanding of the innovation process and the increasingly important role of different stakeholders involved in the process. Furthermore, it draws on the approach of the EU funded CASI project on ‘Public Participation in Developing a Common Framework for the Assessment and Management of Sustainable Innovation’ in order to address these questions.
