This article demonstrates the implications of innovation for corporate governance. To deal with the economics of innovation a theory of corporate governance must come to terms with the developmental, organisational and strategic dimensions of innovative resource allocation. The leading theories of corporate governance - the shareholder and stakeholder theories - do not, however, incorporat a systematic analysis of innovation in their analytical frameworks. I show that both of these perspectives in relying on concepts of resource allocation as individual and optimal contradict what we know about innovation process| Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
