Abstract

This article examines the innovation capacity of municipal
governments by examining their innovation environments –
governance structures, social networks and leadership qualities. An
empirical study of this has been recently completed through a
survey of politicians and senior administrators in Denmark
(Copenhagen), the Netherlands (Rotterdam), Spain (Barcelona) and
Scotland (West Lothian, which borders Edinburgh). The article
outlines a framework for the comparative analysis of the four
cases.
