Chapter 3 : Product lines innovation : On the use of technical laws of evolution
Abstract
The metaphor of life sciences was widely developed in industrial economics in order to understand the dynamics of sectors against a backdrop of innovation. Thus, approaches taking inspiration from the ecology of populations as an extension of Schumpeter’s destructive creativeness concept, studied industrial dynamics by means of complex predator-prey systems (Goodwin 1967 ; Hofbauer and Sigmund 1988 ; Modis 1999 ).
