SUMMARY:Creativity and Innovation in Vietnam (1)
LOCATION:REC A2.09
DESCRIPTION:Innovation has become the buzzword of our time. Innovation is s
 een as essential for accelerating economic growth, improving standards of l
 iving and achieving sustainable development goals. Behind the exaltation of
  innovation is a strong belief in the need for technological improvements a
 nd progress to solve the pressing social, economic and environmental proble
 ms of our time, and in people’s ability to innovate, work and think creativ
 ely, and implement their new ideas through entrepreneurial practices.\nViet
 nam offers an interesting case for studying the makings and meanings of inn
 ovation. During the past years, the concept of “creative innovation” (??i m
 ?i sáng t?o) has gained prominence among those promoting the country’s move
  towards the Industrial Revolution 4.0. This idea about progress has been l
 inked to a range of creativity and innovation practices, from the emergence
  of innovation labs and creative hubs, investments in digitalization and th
 e adoption (and adaption) of smart technologies to the promotion of renewab
 le energies. Yet, little is known about how these creativity and innovation
  practices work out for people on the ground. As Appadurai and Alexander (2
 020) point out, the promises of such innovation-driven capitalism inevitabl
 y entail failures and exclusions.\nIn this panel, we take a critical look a
 t creativity and innovation practices and promises. We will discuss ethnogr
 aphic accounts of creators and innovators, innovations and their connection
 s to improvisations and traditions, as well as the failed attempts of innov
 ation in different sectors of Vietnam. The aim is to reflect on the analyti
 cal value of innovation for anthropology and related disciplines, and to as
 k: How is innovation made in different sectorial, historical and social con
 texts? Who participates in this process, and how? Who is excluded? When and
  why is something considered an innovation? When is it a failure? And what 
 are the consequences?
