Abstract
In this chapter, we shall present the basic ideas and methodologies of a set of contemporary contributions which we shall group under the general heading of “evolutionary economics” (a more precise definition of what we mean will be given shortly). We shall illustrate some achievements — especially with regards to the analysis of technological change and economic dynamics —, discuss some unresolved issues, and flag a few promising topics of research.
