This article analyses how a recent idiom of innovation governance, 'responsible innovation', is enacted in practice, how this shapes innovation processes, and what aspects of innovation are left untouched. Within this idiom, funders typically focus on one point in an innovation system: researchers in projects. However, the more transformational aspirations of responsible innovation are circumscribed by this context. Adopting a mode of critique that assembles, this article considers some alternative approaches to governing the shared trajectories of science, technology, and society. Using the idea of institutional invention to focus innovation governance on four inflection points-agendas, calls, spaces, evaluation-would allow funding organizations and researchers to look 'beyond the project', developing new methods to unpack and reflect on assumed purposes of science, technology, and innovation, and to potentially reconfigure the institutions that condition scientific practice.

项目之外的治理：重新关注新兴科技资助的创新治理。


本文分析了最近的创新治理术语“负责任的创新”是如何在实践中实施的，它如何塑造创新过程，以及创新的哪些方面未被触及。在这个习语中，资助者通常关注创新系统中的一个点：项目中的研究人员。然而，负责任的创新更具变革性的愿望受到这种背景的限制。本文采用集合批判的方式，考虑了一些治理科学、技术和社会共同轨迹的替代方法。利用制度发明的理念将创新治理重点放在四个拐点上——议程、呼吁、空间、评估——将使资助组织和研究人员能够“超越项目”，开发新方法来解开和反思假定的科学目的，技术和创新，并有可能重新配置制约科学实践的机构。
