Since the late 20th century, a rapid expansion of entrepreneurship and 
innovation has been taking place in the developing world, and especially 
in emerging countries. Appropriate technology refers to innovation 
and its applications, both in the formal and informal economy. It is 
generally viewed as accessible, affordable, and user friendly. It 
matches local environments and sustainable impact development needs, in 
particular limited human, technical and financial resource capacities, 
and thus contrasts with capital-intensive technology and high-tech 
transfer strategies led by industrialized countries. Advocates of 
alternative and people-centered technologies introduced the concept of 
appropriate technologies in the 1960s–1970s. Since the late 1990s, this 
concept has evolved in several directions including low cost and robust 
innovation, reverse or simplified technology, open access innovation, 
impact investment, enterprise sustainability, crowdfunding and 
start-ups. It has been even extended to the notion of the simplest level 
of technology targeting any intended development purpose. This new 
series explores disruptive forms of innovation producing appropriate 
technologies for international development alongside empirical analyses 
of various cases and experiences in manufacturing or services. The 
series also contains various materials, which can be used for teaching 
and training both in developed and emerging countries.
