One of the most striking paradoxes of our time has been the growing
importance of regions in the face of a globalizing economy. This
insightful book explains the dynamics of regions in a global
economy and sheds light on the role of knowledge in driving
regional growth. The author examines the way in which regions grow
by receiving knowledge from surrounding regions. Using evolutionary
theory, she advances the argument that knowledge spillovers operate
locally. Computer-simulations analyse the impact of knowledge
spillovers on economic growth across European regions. Finally, the
author uses new original data on, among others, patents and
research and development to demonstrate differences in economic and
innovative activity across regions.
