In this chapter, innovation, one of the most important factors for contemporary organizations and even countries, is analyzed in depth. The concept of innovation is divided into two major fields, which are social innovation and technological innovation. The relationship between these two innovation types and gaining strategic advantage are figured out in a macro perspective. To achieve this, the strongest innovators in Europe were selected. Among them are Switzerland, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Germany, and Norway. To compare the countries, Social Innovation Index and European Innovation Scoreboard were employed to get secondary data. It was observed that by investing more on social and technological innovation, these European countries perform better and gain strategic advantage, which helps them build sustainable future.

The Relationship

Technological innovation as an engine for development requires a structural apparatus to its consolidation, reinforcing the approach of innovation systems, with emphasis on the role of universities. Therefore, considering that associated with this potential are present several innovative elements, such as the Technological Innovation Centers (NITs), the incubators of technology-based companies (IEBTs) and Technology Parks (ParqTecs), and given the lack of systematization National these instruments, the ultimate goal of this study was to analyze the environment for innovation in Brazilian federal universities, through the mapping of NITs, the IEBTs and ParqTecs associated with these institutions, further outlining the relationship of these instruments with technological variables (technological scholarships and patents). We used a qualitative and quantitative approach, descriptive nature, with collection of secondary data on institutional sites of universities and the adoption of simple linear regression analysis. The results realized all 63 Brazilian federal universities and revealed that the most widespread instrument between universities are the NITs, since its presence in 86% of the analyzed institutions. Have business incubators, idealized to strengthen interaction in innovation systems, are associated with 68% of universities, enabling regional development contexts. In relation to technology parks, it was found that, depending on the expenditure required for its implementation, only 26 universities are integrated into ParqTecs. The contributions of this study are concentrated in addition to the mapping done in highlighting the distinctions between the Brazilian regions in terms of scientific and technological structure and the importance of innovation ecosystems.

Madura cattle are one type of local cattle developed and maintained by some Madurese farmers. The adoption of technology is a concept used to absorb new innovative technologies in relation to the development of Madura cattle breeding businesses. Communication channels hold an important role in delivering information to farmers. Active communication channels can facilitate farmers in absorbing information, so the purpose of this study is to analyze how the relationship between communication channels with the adoption of innovation in Madura cattle farmers in the Madura islands. This research was carried out in August 2018 by using secondary data with the research findings taken were Sumenep Regency, Pamekasan, and Bangkalan. The samples taken are 60 people and processed by using Spearman rank correlation analysis method. The results showed that the communication channel is significantly related to knowledge with a correlation coefficient of 0.314. Beside that, the communication channel is significantly related to the decision with the Spearman correlation value of 0.046. Meanwhile, the stages of implementation, implementation, and confirmation do not have a relationship with the communication channel. The adoption of innovative technology relies heavily on the communication channels chosen to transmit technological innovation. The selection of the right extension agents is directly to demonstrate technological innovation to farmers. Thus, the stakeholders are expected to be able to provide direct counseling to increase knowledge and decisions to adopt innovative technology.JEL Classification: O31, Q12, Q16

The Relationship

In this study, we investigate the relationship between values and political beliefs and how it varies as a function of cultural context and time. In particular, we analyzed the effects of Conservation vs. Openness to change and Self-transcendence vs. Self-enhancement for cultural and economic political beliefs using data from nationally representative samples of citizens from 34 European countries from eight rounds of the European Social Survey (data spans the 2002–2016 period). We found that the effects of values on political beliefs are moderated by the Western vs. Eastern cultural context and that there is a modest round-to-round variation in the effects of values on beliefs. The relationship between Openness and cultural beliefs was negative and largely consistent across the Western and Eastern countries. Similarly, the effects of Self-enhancement were positive across these Western and Eastern countries. In contrast, the effects of Openness on economic beliefs were positive for the Eastern countries but largely weak and inconsistent for the Western countries. Finally, the effects of Self-enhancement on cultural beliefs are weak for both cultural contexts.

Local governments play a significant role in the life of the community and the national economy which can be achieved in fiscal health conditions reflected in the low disparity in income structure towards regional expenditure. The inability of regions to escape fiscal dependence is due to the low income, especially from Pendapatan Asli Daerah, which causes fiscal stress which then impacts on policies and implementation of regional spending through spending on programs and activities. This study will examine the relationship between Fiscal Stress and Pendapatan Asli Daerah and expenditure of East Nusa Tenggara Province through simple linear regression testing using secondary data Pertumbuhan Pendapatan Asli Daerah and Belanja Langsung using a sample of six (6) districts / cities in 2014-2016 The results of the study show that the fiscal stress variable does not affect the income structure through Pertumbuhan Pendapatan Asli Daerah and Belanja Langsung at a significance level of <0.05. The results of this study contribute to local budget policies and theoretically to the use of direct expenditure variables that are different from previous studies. Key Words: Fiscal Health, Fiscal Stress, Pendapatan Asli Daerah, dan Belanja Langsung

The Relationship

The importance of international markets is constantly emphasized for small and medium enterprises(SMEs). In previous studies, technological innovation capabilities were emphasized as a factor that enables SMEs to compete in the international market. To this end, SMEs need to cooperate with external partners to strengthen their technological innovation capabilities to thus improve their international performance. With the perspective view of open innovation, this research explores the effects of relational capital and technological innovation capability on international performance, with a particular focus on the moderating effect of alliance proactiveness. Building on previous literature regarding internationalization, technological innovation, and alliance proactiveness, research hypotheses were developed and tested using data collected from 175 SMEs. A hierarchical regression analysis was applied. The analysis showed that, first, relational capital had a significant effect on the technological innovation capability. Second, technological innovation capability has a significant influence on the international performance. Third, technological innovation capability mediated the relationship between relational capital and international performance. Finally, alliance proactiveness was found to moderate the relationship between technological innovation capability and international performance. The key research findings imply that relational capital and alliance proactiveness are the key factors of international performance, as they improved the development of the technological innovation capability.
