As a consequence of globalization, news, ideas and knowledge are
moving quickly across national borders and generating international
spillovers. So too, however, are economic and financial crises.
Combining a variety of methods, concepts and interdisciplinary
approaches, this book provides an in-depth examination of these
structural changes and their impact. Case studies from a range of
countries including Japan, Turkey, Sweden, Germany and the USA
offer insight into different national contexts and are used to
explore a variety of theoretical and empirical issues relating to
the geography of growth. Assessing the implications of
globalization for businesses and sectors, the chapters focus on the
interdependencies between different economic and political layers,
and explore topics such as human capital, creativity, innovation,
networks and collaboration. Researchers and policy makers who are
interested in regional growth at different spatial scales will find
that this work addresses a number of existing knowledge gaps.
Students of economics, economic geography, regional science and
international industrial management will also find it to be a
valuable interdisciplinary resource to help deepen their knowledge
of the myriad processes induced by globalization. Contributors
