Description
Summary:The paper presents the thesis that the administration should be the target for innovation research. In the context of the promotion of innovations the administration deals with a threefold paradox. Innovations are non-intendable, the administration forms a non-innovative environment and the administration is dependent on majority decisions. Using the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen as a case study the paper scrutinizes the internal handling of these obstacles of the administration. As a main empirical finding it shows up that presentation and delegation are the main methods the administration uses to encounter its own endogenous resistances in the context of the promotion of innovation.
