This book introduces a radically spatialised approach to knowledge
creation and innovation. Reflecting on an array of European urban
and regional developments, it offers an updated notion of milieu as
the conceptual and material space of knowledge and innovation in
line with the interpretative turn in social sciences and
humanities. In view of the unwillingness of mainstream economics to
accommodate such a trend, the authors pursue a broadly understood
hermeneutic approach that expands on the triad of
knowledge-space-innovation. The book's main findings are that space
is an essential intermediary in the connection between knowledge
and innovation, and that a renewed notion of milieu provides the
knowledge-space-innovation triad with both an analytical basis and
operational power. It also offers fresh insights into the
significance and potential of the knowledge economy. A number of
empirical European case studies on various scales (organisations,
cities and territories) support the findings and suggest new policy
directions.
