Applying a critical perspective to stimulate dialogue and mutual learning between the interconnected fields of social innovation and social policy analysis, this dynamic Handbook investigates the often-contested relationship between these two areas of enquiry and practice.
Bringing together discerning contributions from a diverse team of international scholars and analysts, the Handbook explores key policy insights, practical lessons and advances in theoretical understanding which can be drawn from social innovation and social policy. Chapters examine a comprehensive range of social issues and policy areas including sustainable development, employment, immigration, financial exclusion, digital services, food provision, health and social care, and gender equality. Presenting distinctive new insights into how social innovation and social policy can address these issues, the Handbook ultimately considers how social innovation can offer solutions and ways forward in response to emerging social problems and persistent welfare needs.
This expansive Handbook will be invaluable for academics, scholars, and advanced students of social policy, social innovation and enterprise, public management and administration, and politics. Locating the relationship between social innovation and social policy in historical, theoretical, and practical contexts, it will also benefit civil society organisations and public policymakers tasked with developing and implementing innovations and reforms in key policy areas.

The Handbook on Social Innovation and Social Policy will prove invaluable for academics, scholars, and advanced students of social policy, social innovation and enterprise, public management and administration, and politics. Locating the relationship between social innovation and social policy in historical, theoretical, and practical contexts, it will also benefit civil society organisations and public policymakers tasked with developing and implementing innovations and reforms in key policy areas. -- John Burroughs, Reviewer's Bookwatch Bringing social policy and social innovation into important conversations, this is a must read for scholars studying the complex problems of our day. Taking a critical stance, the contributors highlight the importance of participatory practices across a range of places and issues. -- Christine M. Beckman, University of Southern California, US How to reverse the disconnections between social innovations and social policy systems? This question might open up a fruitful perspective from where to read the manifold contributions to this Handbook. They deal not only with impediments but moreover with ways for a new and better intertwining of both levels. -- Adalbert Evers, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg, Germany The contributions to this Handbook critically examine the relationship between social innovation and social policy, which is inherently a complex and dynamic one. Rather than losing itself to yet more conceptual explorations, it addresses the key policy issues of our time. This will be a valuable resource for students and researchers alike. -- Taco Brandsen, Radboud University, the Netherlands
