Presentation
Innovation is an old word, of Greek origin, that came into the Latin
vocabulary in the early Middle Age and into our everyday vocabulary with
the Reformation. However, it is only during the second half of the
twentieth century that innovation became a fashionable concept and
turned into a buzzword. It gave rise to a plethora of terms like
technological innovation, organizational innovation, industrial
innovation and, more recently, social innovation, open innovation,
sustainable innovation, responsible innovation. We may call these terms
X-innovation.
In this way, X-innovation is the latest step (see background paper
<https://csiic.us14.list-manage.com/track/click?u=406def9a7d657267ac22ee63c&id=4f6f7a4a34&e=9ab84a8d11>

to give sense to a century-old process of enlargement of the concept of
innovation. Over the last five centuries, innovation enlarged its
meaning from the religious to the political to the social to the
economical. X-innovation is the more recent such enlargement. It Is the
continuation, under new terms, of the contestation of technological
innovation as the dominant discourse of the twentieth century.
How can we make sense of this semantic extension? Why do these terms
come into being? What drives people to coin new terms? What effects do
the terms have on thought, on culture and scholarship and on policy and
politics? Which forms of contestation and appropriation ensue around
certain X-innovations? How do they shape, and are shaped by, broader
social trends? How to they relate to questions of power and inclusion?
This call asks for answers to these questions through critical
approaches in human and social sciences, including intellectual and
conceptual history, science and technology studies, political economy,
sociology, and anthropology. We welcome both conceptual and empirical work.
The five areas below represent the scope of methodological possibilities
for this special issue of NOvation:
1. Critical analyses: from and on studies of innovation, being those
approaches more disciplinary or interdisciplinary in nature;
2. Discourse analysis: deconstructing actors’ rhetoric, policy-makers’
frameworks and scholars’ theories;
3. Intellectual history: documenting scholars’ intellectual, academic
and social trajectories;
4. Conceptual accounts: studying the concepts used in the field, the
traveling of concepts among fields (academic and public) and their
transformation into catchwords;
5. Case studies: understanding and mapping the uses of innovation and
rethinking current narratives;
