Entrepreneurial Competition and Industrial Location - Investigating the Structural Patterns and Intangible Sources of... Entrepreneurial Competition and Industrial Location - Investigating the Structural Patterns and Intangible Sources of Competitive Performance (Hardcover)
Michael Peneder
R3,158 Discovery Miles 31 580 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Entrepreneurial Competition and Industrial Location explores the notion of entrepreneurial competition from its theoretical foundations in early Austrian and contemporary evolutionary economics. Focusing on the structural development of the intangible factors of production such as labour skills, advertising and research and development, the book's empirical implications are tested in a comparative study of competitive performance in the EU, Japan and the USA. Typical mechanisms of external spillovers, shaping industrial location by means of Marshallian cluster formation, highlight the dimension of industrial location. Peneder finally employs the three evolutionary principles of variation, cumulation and selection to establish entrepreneurship, learning and fair markets as the main pillars of modern competitiveness policy. This volume paves the way for a better understanding of the market process, demonstrating the importance of intangible factors as sources of competitive advantage both by conclusive theoretical argument and careful empirical investigation.

Schumpeter's Venture Money (Hardcover): Michael Peneder, Andreas Resch Schumpeter's Venture Money (Hardcover)

Distinctively tying history with theory, political economist Joseph A. Schumpeter reached far back in time to understand what drives economic development and determines its course. Historical and empirical research provided a laboratory for learning. At the same time, he reached for a long-term vision through theoretical inspection and utmost abstraction, seeking to distil a phenomenon's essential nature and function. He believed that good theory can indicate where the economy is headed in the future. Schumpeter's attention to history and theory also informed the plan for this book. Part I trails the historical stream of financial innovations and the scholarly struggle to assimilate them in monetary thought, while Part II focuses on Schumpeter's own monetary theory. Its deliberate reconstruction from scattered sources reveals a strikingly original and still modern conception. Drawing from the detailed study of documents at various archives in Austria, Part III then concentrates on the business history of Schumpeter's failed personal endeavours in banking and as a proto-venture capitalist. Finally, Part IV casts light on the legacy of Schumpeter's monetary ideas on contemporary thought. It depicts how monetary theory initially left them behind, yet has more recently set out to return to his ideas on money, financial innovation, and growth. Overall, a surprisingly coherent picture emerges from the study of Schumpeter's neglected monetary theory, his personal history, and his intellectual legacy on the present day.

Zur Analyse des wirtschaftlichen Wandels benoetigt man wissenschaftlich fundierte Konzepte, Methoden und Instrumente, die der Verlaufs- und Ergebnisoffenheit von Prozessen in realer Zeit Rechnung tragen. In kompakten Einzelbeitragen fasst der vorliegende Band die grundlegenden Konzepte und Methoden der Evolutorischen OEkonomik zur Untersuchung von Prozessen des wirtschaftlichen Wandels zusammen. Ausgewahlte Anwendungsfelder belegen sowohl die wissenschaftliche Bedeutung als auch die gesellschaftliche Relevanz des evolutionsoekonomischen Ansatzes. Der interdisziplinare Diskurs zeigt Anknupfungspunkte z.B. zur Psychologie, Verhaltensforschung oder Politikwissenschaft. Ein ideengeschichtlicher UEberblick zu den Wegbereitern der Evolutorischen OEkonomik rundet das Bild ab. Wie ein Kaleidoskop, das trotz der disparat liegenden Einzelteile ein Muster zeigt, unterstreicht der Band die Einheit des evolutorischen Denkens in der OEkonomik innerhalb einer Vielfalt unterschiedlicher Themen und methodischer Ansatze. Darin kommen der plurale Charakter sowie die Experimentierfreudigkeit und Offenheit fur innovative Ansatze dieser Forschungsrichtung zum Ausdruck.
