Hi,
I'm in the midst of starting a paper on the history of innovation. I'm interested how new technologies are accepted, incorporated, rejected, or killed and how they are agents of transformation (I'm aware of the work of Elizabeth Eisenstein) - basically I will do research on the language and the concepts that are used/created. I'm especially interested in internet technologies and webpublishing technologies (... social software).
Now I wonder if you could point me to some relevant literature on that topic that could help me to jumpstart into my research.
Thanks for your help
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Check out Everett Rogers' "Diffusion of Innovations" - his work is canonical for work in this area. Even those who disagree with his thinking cite it... :)

I would recommend the work of Bruno Latour, Michael Callon, John Law, and the other actor network folk.

there is a pretty good book entitled 'the political economy of innovation' that introduces some of the normal literature in innovation studies. On Jul 21, 2004, at 3:57 PM, gjacobs1@rochester.rr.com wrote:

Also check out Eric von Hippel's "Source of Innovation" - Oxford University Press - he discusses the front-end of the innovation process - where innovations are actually developed.
