Social Innovation and Social Policy: Theory, Policy and Practice
No full textSocial innovation has become a prominent theme in discussions of social policy reform across the world. This book examines why social innovation is important to social policy analysis. It discusses the theoretical and policy context of this concept; its origin and background; why it has emerged to prominence in recent years and how it has been applied.The book relates social innovation to key debates and issues in social policy. These include competing agency and structural explanations of and solutions to social problems; the relative efficacy of government and civil society initiatives, and the capacity of community and/or service user-led responses to address social problems. The book will be a valuable resource for a wide, international readership including social and public policy analysts, policy makers, practitioners and students

Social innovation and social policy analysis
Full text linkThis chapter discusses the relationship between social innovation and the discipline of Social Policy, as opposed to social policies per se, i.e. the systematic study of how social problems are conceptualised and responded to collectively. The chapter observes that, although the scope of Social Policy analysis has always been wide, nevertheless its parameters and interests have expanded significantly of late. Social Policy takes a global and comparative rather than a national orientation, and it is as concerned with ‘New Social Risks’ as much as more familiar conditions and concerns. These developments mean that the discipline should pay attention to SI. Despite this, there remains some scepticism towards SI within Social Policy. This is partly an expression of frustration at the apparent lack of impact of SI, in particular the seeming inability of SIs to deliver sustained transformational change at a societal level. The chapter considers such criticisms, reflecting on some of their implications and the questions they raise. As SI and Social Policy share an interest in effecting practical change rather than detached commentary, the chapter highlights some areas where each might learn from the other, and suggests how their respective and overlapping agendas can be advanced together
