Could the responsible innovation approach reconcile citizens with innovation? The dark side of innovation often comes to the fore in debates and in facts: negative effects on employment (flexibility, job insecurity), on the natural and social environment, on living standards, etc. Research on responsible innovation focuses on the question of governance (at the level of companies, public policies and society in general) of the innovation process, in order to bring it into line with the global issues linked to sustainability, be they environmental (climate change, biodiversity), social (poverty, social justice) or economic (employment, lifestyle).

The authors of this special issue of Innovations, Journal of Innovation Economics & Management use rigorous methods to tackle a series of important challenges and perspectives concerning the concept of responsible innovation. Given the importance of theoretical debates and factual trends in innovation studies, this special issue brings together contributions that open up new avenues of research and stimulate further investigation, rather than providing conclusive statements.
