Those include large countries long-recognized for innovative capacities -prominently including the United States (Block, 2008;Block & Keller, 2011;Brandt & Whitford, 2017;Fuchs, 2010;Mac-Neil, 2012;Wade, 2017); smaller countries which have effectively supported emerging innovative fields, including Ireland, Israel, Taiwan, and Finland, among others (Breznitz, 2007;Breznitz & Ornston, 2013;Maman & Rosenhek, 2012;Hsieh, 2016;Ó Riain, 2004Ó Riain, , 2006Ó Riain, , 2016Wang, 2015); selective and partial adaptations in the innovation strategies of classic developmental states like Japan and South Korea (Chu, 2016;Kim, 2012); technology-intensive areas of rapidly emerging economies like China (Breznitz & Murphree, 2014); and sectoral industrial developments in perhaps unexpected locales -including Iran's automotive industry (Mehri, 2015(Mehri, , 2017, and several Chilean export sectors (Negoita & Block, 2012), among others. ...
