본 논문은 EU의 TEPSIE 연구에서 정의한 사회혁신 생태계를 분석틀로 활용하여 한국 사회혁신 생태계의 현황을 살펴보고 발전방안을 제시하고 있다. TEPSIE가 정의한 사회혁신 생태계는 전사회적인 차원에서 '사회혁신'의 요소들을 담아냄으로써, 사회적 경제와 연관하여 사회적 기업을 논의하는 과정에서 다소 협소할 수 있었던 시각을 확장하여 구조적 환경과, 자원, 파트너쉽 등을 포괄하는 분석틀을 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 사회혁신기업을 둘러싼 구조적 조건, 수요와 공급 차원에서의 관련 요소들, 그리고 중간지원조직을 중심으로 핵심적인 내용을 분석적으로 담아내고, 이를 바탕으로 사회혁신 생태계의 발전 방안을 제시하였다.

The main aim of this study is a meta-theoretical investigation to explain the current theoretical landscape of social innovation theories and researches. First of all, this paper makes a typology of social innovation based on concepts and sectors of social innovation. Second, in terms of societal innovation, which it is a kind of social innovation systematic approach, this paper draws some implications for social innovation policy. My key argument is that social innovation could be specified in three different sectors, public innovation, market innovation, and social economy innovation. However, all of them have attention to such as improving a quality of life and making society more sustainable, so it can be argued that those different sectors are structured on social innovation altogether with common goals. Finally, in order to activate the social innovation ecosystem, the government has to play a key role as a facilitator to make sustainable networks and a governance of social innovation that is needed to coordinate between different features and roles of social innovation sectors.

The purpose of this article is to reinterpret the existing innovation policy with 'the societal innovation policy' framework. It is looking into characteristics of societal innovation policy and the prospects for socio-technical systems transition and citizen participation are discussed. After the discussion, new interpretation of innovation policy elements will be dealt with lenses of societal innovation policy. It sheds new light on the key elements of innovation policy, such as Innovation policy governance, industrial innovation policy, regional innovation policy, and infrastructure policy and suggests direction of policy improvements from societal innovation policy perspectives. This will be an opportunity to reinterpret the existing innovation policy measures and to approach to science technology innovation policy for system transition with participatory perspective.

최근 들어 사회문제 해결형 과학기술혁신 활동이 활성화되고 있다. 과학기술정보통신부에서 추진하는 국민생활연구사업, 그리고 혁신본부에서 기획하고 있는 사회문제 해결을 위한 다부처 공동 기획사업 등이 추진되고 있다. 사회문제 해결형 과학기술혁신은 사회문제 해결을 최우선 목표로 삼고 있기 때문에 수월한 과학기술지식의 창출, 산업경쟁력 강화를 위한 혁신과는 목표와 추진체제가 다르다. 사회문제 해결형 과학기술혁신은 사회혁신과 과학기술을 결합하는 활동이라고 할 수 있다. 이렇게 새로운 유형의 혁신활동이 등장하면서 이를 바라보는 다양한 관점이 존재하고 있다. 본 발표에서는 각 논의들을 정리하고 향후 사회문제 해결형 과학기술혁신의 발전방향을 제시한다. 여기서는 크게 3가지 분류로 사회문제 해결형 혁신을 보는 관점을 정리한다. 첫 번째는 전문가 중심의 관점(Innovation for people)이다. 이는 전문가가 분석과 논의를 통해 사회문제를 정의하고 그 대안을 제시하는 접근이다. 많은 과학기술전문가들이 가지고 있는 틀로서 선형모델에 입각한 논의이다. 때문에 혁신의 선형모델이 가지고 있는 문제점, 피드백의 부족, 현장에 대한 이해 부족 등과 같은 단점이 있다. 두 번째는 시민사회 중심의 관점(Innovation by people)이다. 이는 현장의 문제 상황에 있는 시민들이 문제를 정의하고 혁신활동을 주도해야 한다는 관점이다. 이 관점은 일반 시민을 과학기술혁신의 주체로 호명하고 실질적인 문제 해결에 참여시키면서 주류 과학기술의 미흡한 현장 지역 지향성을 비판하고 있다. 그러나 혁신의 논의가 지역에 한정되면서 규모 확대의 어려움을 겪는 경우가 많다. 장기 지속성을 확보하는 데에도 난점이 있다. 세 번째는 전문가와 시민의 협업 관점(Innovation with people)이다. 이는 시민성과 전문성의 결합을 통해 민주주의를 고양하고, 현장 지식과 전문 지식의 융합을 지향하는 접근이다. 또 리빙랩과 같은 추진 체제를 적극적으로 활용한다. 그러나 전문가와 시민사회의 협업을 지원하는 인프라와 지원체제가 부족하면 여러 문제점이 발생할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이런 관점들의 한계를 극복하기 위해서 국지적 문제해결과 국가적 문제 해결의 연계, 실험의 중요성 강조, 전문가와 최종 사용자 및 시민의 실질적 협업을 위한 기반 구축, 시스템 전환 프레임의 도입을 정책 방향으로 제시했다.

This article reviews studies on the societal challenge and technological innovation. Technological innovation in response to social problems is a relatively recent topic of Innovation Studies. Socially-oriented innovations and policies are different in terms of the goals, innovation processes, and ecosystems when compared with industrial innovation. This study examines the existing research that discusses science and technology innovation from the viewpoint of solving societal problems and discusses the direction of future research. This paper presents major research issues on the characteristics of innovation in societal problem solving, innovation governance, roles and ecosystem of innovators, and relationship between societal problem solving policies and other policies.

This study tries to categorize innovation types for social welfare organizations and investigate the level of innovation in each type in practical field. Firstly, this study scrutinizes the concept and classification's criterias of innovation. Secondly, this study reviews not only classification of innovation in profit organization but also several researches of innovation in service industry and public sectors, and finally, this study makes a suggestion of innovations' classification that is applicable for social welfare organizations. Based on this suggestion, fifteen questions are designed to ask the innovative activities in the organizations. And total 496 respondents from 116 organizations answered these questionnaire. The outcomes of this survey were substantiated by second data through converted procedures to mean value of organizations. Consquently, service innovation, administrative innovation and human resource innovation, proposed based on theoretical review, were subdivided into six categories such as service innovation, structural innovation, internal and efficiency innovation, marketing and communication innovation, external and employment innovation and evalution and mission innovation. The mean value of service(mean=14.7) and marketing innovation(mean=13.3) are higher than other type of innovations, which shows the aspect of innovative activities in social welfare organizations. Based on this result, we can get the directions of following study in investigating innovation of social welfare organization.

The purpose of this study was to develop an empirically-based inventory of organizational innovativeness of social welfare organizations. Review of literature on innovation research and panel study resulted thirty-seven(37) pre-items for measuring organizational innovativeness. An exploratory factor analysis of the pre-items drawn from the first survey data of 178 social workers revealed seven(7)-factor structure of 31 items. The factors included leadership innovation, team work innovation, task innovation, program development innovation, program technology innovation, idea innovation. A confirmatory factor analysis using data from the second survey of 409 social workers also indicated relevance of seven(7) factor structure of the inventory. Further these seven factors showed positive and significant correlations with measures for innovation culture indicating the inventory had the criterion-related validity. Although additional work remains in methodological issues, the results presented in this paper have shown that this inventory of organizational innovativeness can be an useful tool for assessing innovativeness of social welfare organizations.

Digital Social Innovation, social innovation utilizing digital technology, is gaining attenntion as an innovative new way of solving pressing social problems such as ageing, traffic, unemployment etc. while some raise concerns as to the negative impact of digital technology on society associated with Share-the-Scraps-economy and On-demand-economy. The paper aims to address these concerns by examining the nature and source of business values generated in digital social innovation. Donation, cooperation/solidarity and sharing are identified as sources of business value from social innovation. Digitization, Platform may present infrastructure upon which efficiency of economic transaction can be elevated. The participation of consumers/users in the value chain and value network enabled by digital technology is identified and discussed as the critical source of business value in digital social innovation. The business model of Docksan-dong Happy Parking Street living lab project is analysed to illuminate the realization of business vaules in real life setting. Policy recommendations and future research directions are suggested.

After Satoshi Nakamoto published 'Bitcoin: A peer-to-peer electronic cash system' in 2008, Blockchain has been GPT (General Purpose Technologies) that affect the whole cycle of the $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution. This study attempted to identify the innovativeness of Blockchain. Because of Blockchain's ambidextrous characteristics, Blockchain has two kinds of innovativeness, technological innovation by physical technology and social innovation by social technology. Thus, this study will be useful to increase understanding and establishing strategy for Blockchain.
