Resilience has lately emerged as a recurrent notion to explain how
territorial socio-economic systems adapt successfully (or not) to
negative events. Resilience, Crisis and Innovation Dynamics uses
resilience as a bridging notion to connect different types of
theoretical and empirical approaches, helping improve understanding
of the impacts of economic turbulence at both system and actor
levels. Providing a unique overview of the recent financial crisis,
as well as assessing the importance of innovation dynamics for
regional resilience, the international array of contributors offers
an engaging and thought-provoking debate as to how regional
resilience can be improved as well as exploring the social aspects
of vulnerability, resilience and innovation. In offering a set of
challenges from different regional and structural perspectives, the
book helps to consolidate the research surrounding resilience in
regional science. Essentially, the contributions consider the
relevance of innovation systems, knowledge networks and the role
innovation actors play to create new possibilities for preparing
for, and adapting to, both present shocks and future problems that
may arise. Offering a wealth of refreshing studies with great value
for academia, industry and government, this book will be relevant
for students and researchers of economics, urban and regional
studies, and innovation as well as regional scientists and
planners. Contributors include: P. Bary, T. Baycan, M.B. Baypinar,
