Abstract
Abstract: In this chapter we will discuss and profile the evolutionary and revolutionary dimensions of the nature and dynamics of innovation as a socio-technical phenomenon. We will focus in particular on the process, content, context, and impact of both discontinuous and disruptive innovations. We postulate that at the heart of the competence to generate and perhaps more significantly to leverage discontinuous and in particular disruptive innovations, lies the individual and organizational capacity for higher-order learning and for managing the stock and flow of specialized and domain-specific knowledge. We will provide both concepts and cases to illustrate our ideas and supply thematic anchors for academic and practitioner contexts.
