First, the authors discuss competition, including global competition, to provide a better understanding of competition policy in Japan. Then, the authors examine the effects of human capital and alliance on innovation while providing new innovation indicators. Moreover, the authors examine growth from the perspective of corporate strategy such as acquisition, including international comparison. The interplay of competition, innovation, and growth has been prevalent in Japan, and it still acts as a catalyst for stimulating the stagnant economy. A better understanding of competition, innovation, and growth provides the tools to reinvigorate the stagnant economy in Japan and to reinforce the economy in other countries where the period of rapid growth has ended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYuji Honjo (Chapters 1 and 8)\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eProfessor, Faculty of Commerce, Chuo University\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eHis publications have appeared in \u003ci\u003eResearch Policy\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSmall Business Economics\u003c\/i\u003e, and other journals.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eHiroyuki Odagiri (Chapter 2)\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eProfessor (emeritus), Graduate School of Economics, Hitotsubashi University\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eHe was the Commissioner of the Japan Fair Trade Commission and is now its Special Advisor.
