Innovation

I'm confused about the word "innovation" and how it can be used. Can one say that a given "government lacks innovation," for example? Would that mean that the government is stagnant? And if a government is, in fact, innovative, would that mean that it is, in fact, progressive?

Moreover, what would an innovative artist be? One who creates original things?

Thanks.

Snarf Can one say that a given "government lacks innovation," for example? Abetter choice here is 'innovativeness' (the ability to create innovation). Snarf Would that mean that the government is stagnant?
