Abstract
The rich, vibrant discourse in this book is presented as a point of departure for exploring new and different dimensions to the diffusion of innovations and international development in the 21st century. We share our thoughts on ways in which to be pro-active in the future. In looking forward, we offer suggestions and proposals for enhancing diffusion and international development portfolios and agendas. We invite readers to review our critical perspectives in an attempt to understand our diverse viewpoints and to look through our multifaceted lens. Readers are encouraged to explore, investigate, interrogate, and contest the socio-economic and political landscape on which we want to build our collective dream for a global community founded on the principles of social justice and human rights.
