Retrovation 

Retro-innovation. Innovation that happens when people resist change or when they go back to a state before the change was brought in. Remember, standard definitions of innovation is built around change and consider resistance to change anti-innovative.
People are increasingly going back to the good old days. Retrovation is evident in many new products that we use. Organic, fertilizer free farming is popular again.
