This volume explores how to measure innovation, track its effects, and understand its impact on production processes, labor markets, and organizational form and operation. It suggests strategies for expanding current measurement frameworks to better capture innovative activity, such as developing more detailed tracking of global value chains and expanding the measurement of innovation's impacts on GDP. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\n                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 776 pages\u003cbr\u003e\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 May 2021\u003cbr\u003e\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: The University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeasuring innovation is a complex and challenging task, both for researchers and national statisticians, and it has become increasingly important in the context of the ongoing digital revolution. National accounts and other economic statistics were developed before the emergence of the digital economy and the growing significance of intangible capital. These statistics do not fully capture the diverse range of innovative activities observed in modern economies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume aims to explore the measurement of innovation, its impact on economic activity, and its transformation of production processes, labor markets, and organizational structures in businesses. The contributors examine innovative approaches to data collection, such as tracking specific innovations rather than firms and using trademarks to monitor innovation. They also consider the relationships between university-based research and business start-ups and the potential implications of innovation on income distribution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe research findings suggest strategies for enhancing current measurement frameworks to better capture innovative activity. These include developing more detailed tracking of global value chains to identify innovation across time and space and expanding the measurement of the impact of innovations on GDP in areas such as consumer content delivery and cloud computing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, measuring innovation is a critical endeavor that requires a multifaceted approach. By examining new data sources and methodologies, we can gain a deeper understanding of the drivers and consequences of innovation and develop more effective policies to promote its growth and dissemination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 992g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 161 x 245 x 40 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780226728179\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44095400247546,"sku":"9780226728179","price":106.62,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/32ab309d3aa8567a8dc99641643c7d87.jpg?v=1632711745","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/measuring-and-accounting-for-innovation-in-the-twenty-first-century","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
