While this growth has indisputably brought in wealth, there are still countless questions about the characteristics, constraints, and implications of the region's systems of innovation. Do these systems even exist in the Arab region? How does the current economic structure affect regional innovation? Is the presence of natural resources a help or a hindrance? Economic Systems of Innovation in the Arab Region discusses the causes, consequences, and implications of poor systems of innovation in the Middle East and North Africa. By examining the comparative weakness of innovation, the economic structure, and the diversity of the region, Nour shows that the development of Arab regional systems of innovation is contingent upon the development of adequate economic policies and incentives in the area. Her contribution is key for students and scholars of economics, innovation, and international relations. 606 $aInternational economic relations 606 $aEthnology$zMiddle East 606 $aCulture 606 $aEthnology$zAfrica 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpace in economics 606 $aIndustrial organization 606 $aTechnological innovations 606 $aInternational Economics 606 $aMiddle Eastern Culture 606 $aAfrican Culture 606 $aRegional and Spatial Economics 606 $aIndustrial Organization 606 $aInnovation and Technology Management 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpace in economics. 615 0$aIndustrial organization. 615 0$aTechnological innovations. 615 14$aInternational Economics. 615 24$aMiddle Eastern Culture. 615 24$aAfrican Culture. 615 24$aRegional and Spatial Economics. 615 24$aIndustrial Organization. 615 24$aInnovation and Technology Management. 676 $a338/.06409174927 700 $aMohamed Nour$b Samia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0866716 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254886503321 996 $aEconomic Systems of Innovation in the Arab Region$91934674 997 $aUNINA
