The Dynamics of Resource-Based Economic Development: Evidence from Australia and Norway (2013, background): “In a recent paper, Nelson (2008) develops the concept of social technologies to describe the set of interactions and coordinations among organisations and actors in the process of developing or deploying a physical technology.”
Innovation across Europe: how important are institutional differences? (2011, methodology): “In these studies, institutions are mainly concrete entities related to the production or diffusion of innovation as universities, research institutes, prevailing patent law, public programs or technical societies (Nelson, 2008).”
Corporate Social Responsibility in Challenging and Non-enabling Institutional Contexts: Do Institutional Voids matter? (2014, neutral): “We also refer to institutions in the concrete sense, such as patterns of cooperation and competition among firms, the role of technical societies and governments, capital markets, regulation, NGOs and employee programmes (Eggertsson 2005; Nelson 2008).”
The determinants of financial fraud in Chinese firms: Does corporate governance as an institutional innovation matter? (2017, background): “It lies in “social technology” (proposed by Nelson and Sampat, 2001) area, and in an institutional sense it can be viewed as “the rules of the game” (North, 1990) and mechanisms constraining and shaping behaviours (Nelson, 2008; Nelson and Nelson, 2002; Williamson, 1985).”
Innovation in and from emerging economies: New insights and lessons for international business research (2021, background): “Nelson (2008) noted how these catching-up countries offered a unique opportunity to understand the alternative paths of innovation and the interaction of knowledge resources inside and outside the firm.”
Innovation Capabilities and Directions of Development (2009, background): “Only recently have steps been taken to try and develop greater and more differentiated conceptual clarity about the contents of the box (e.g. Nelson and Sampat 2001; Nelson 2008); and empirical analysis remains rare, except in the area of IPR regimes.”
Technical Change and Industrial Dynamics as Evolutionary Processes (2009, background): “27 (For a more detailed discussion, see Nelson, 2008a).”
Specialisation, diversification and the ladder of green technology development (2020, positive): “Our reading is that, akin to several other societal challenges, dealing with environmental sustainability calls upon the capacity to build rich and diverse knowledge structures with the proactive participation of both firms and the attendant institutions (Nelson, 2008).”
An evolutionary approach to understanding international business activity: The co-evolution of MNEs and the institutional environment (2010, neutral): “…of value creation, this is related to a tendency towards a growing disparity between success in the development of the understanding of physical technology on the one hand, and the adequacy of knowledge about the accompanying social technology on the other (Nelson, 2008; Nelson & Nelson, 2002).”
Catching-up trajectories in the wine sector: a comparative study of Chile, Italy and South Africa. (2010, background): “…of different eras require different sets of supporting institutions, successful countries 6 are those that have the bases of these institutions already in place when they are needed, or can manage to build appropriate new institutions rapidly and effectively (Perez and Soete, 1998; Nelson, 2008).”
