Assessment exercises of research, technological development and innovation measures within the cohesion policy framework do not provide up to now consistent results. Our impression is that the lack of consistency depends on the fact that assessment exercises are developed with no reference to the regional context in which research, technological development and innovation funds are spent. The present paper tries to overcome this gap by providing an assessment of the relevance and utility of research, technological development and innovation which takes into consideration alternative regional innovation contexts. Results indicate that research, technological development and innovation funds are in general relevant to increase innovation. However, our findings warn on the utility of research, technological development and innovation initiatives for socio-economic growth in regions lacking internal scientific research and technological activities. Interesting policy suggestions emerge which go in line with what has been conceptualized in the debate about the regional innovation smart specialization strategy.
迄今为止,在凝聚力政策框架内对研究、技术发展和创新措施进行的评估工作没有提供一致的结果。我们的印象是,缺乏一致性取决于这样一个事实,即评估工作的制定没有考虑到研究、技术发展和创新资金所处的区域背景。本文试图通过评估研究、技术发展和创新的相关性和效用来克服这一差距,并考虑到其他区域创新背景。研究结果表明,研究、技术开发和创新资金总体上与促进创新相关。然而,我们的研究结果对缺乏内部科学研究和技术活动的地区的研究、技术开发和创新活动对社会经济增长的效用提出了警告。在关于区域创新智能专业化战略的辩论中,出现了一些有趣的政策建议,这些建议与已经概念化的内容一致。

Social capital is widely recognized as an important aspect of regional economies, and social networks in particular have recently been the focus of research in economic sociology and economic geography. Building on this body of work, this research explores the role of social networks in the divergent economic fortunes of two highly advance Californian metropolitan regions over the past three decades, Los Angeles and the Bay Area. Proxies for the two regions' industrial social structures are constructed and analysed at three cross sections over the divergence period: 1982, 1995 and 2010. Network analysis shows that the Bay Area's industrial social structure maintains a high level of connectivity, bridging relations across industrial boundaries, and by 2010 has a highly connected and central business-civic organization, the Bay Area Council. The LA region's social structure, on the other hand, fragments substantially over the period.
社会资本被广泛认为是区域经济的一个重要方面,尤其是社会网络近年来一直是经济社会学和经济地理学研究的热点。在此基础上,本研究探讨了过去三十年来,加州两个高度发达的大都市区——洛杉矶和旧金山湾区——在不同的经济命运中,社交网络所扮演的角色。本文分别在1982年、1995年和2010年这三个不同时期构建和分析了两个地区工业社会结构的代用指标。网络分析表明,湾区的产业社会结构保持着高度的连通性,跨越了产业边界的联系,到2010年,湾区拥有了一个高度联系的核心商业-民间组织——湾区委员会。另一方面,洛杉矶地区的社会结构在这一时期出现了实质性的分裂。

High-skilled migration across international borders is becoming increasingly important in policy and academic debates. In Australia, the recognition of the importance of attracting and retaining highly skilled individuals has stimulated fundamental shifts in immigration policies. This paper explores the impacts of one of these policy shifts in focusing on the introduction of a graduate visa scheme. The scheme was introduced in Australia for the first time in September 2007 offering international graduates from Australian universities 18 months of working rights post-graduation. Since the implementation of this visa scheme there has been a sharp increase in the number of overseas graduates staying in Australia. However, no research has been carried out that investigates the working conditions and interregional migration patterns of these graduates remaining in Australia under this temporary 18 months visa. Through the exploration of individual survey data describing the 2005 and 2008 cohorts of graduates representing the ‘before’ and ‘after’ the graduate visa scheme introduction this paper explores the impact of the visa scheme through analysing and comparing the working conditions and migration patterns of two cohorts of graduates. Findings suggest that although the introduction of the graduate visa scheme attracted more international students/graduates into the country, our analysis highlighted that the average working conditions of the international graduates who decided to remain in Australia worsened. Comparing these results with their domestic (Australian) graduate counterparts revealed that this was not due to the overall state of the Australian economy over the period under consideration.
跨国高技能移民在政策和学术辩论中变得越来越重要。在澳大利亚,人们认识到吸引和留住高技能人才的重要性,刺激了移民政策的根本转变。本文探讨了这些政策转变的影响之一,重点是引入研究生签证计划。该计划于2007年9月首次在澳大利亚推出,为澳大利亚大学的国际毕业生提供毕业后18个月的工作权利。自从这项签证计划实施以来,留在澳大利亚的海外毕业生人数急剧增加。然而,没有研究调查这些毕业生在18个月的临时签证下留在澳大利亚的工作条件和区域间移民模式。通过对描述2005年和2008年毕业生群体的个人调查数据的探索,代表了“之前”和“之后”的毕业生签证计划引入,本文通过分析和比较两组毕业生的工作条件和移民模式,探讨了签证计划的影响。调查结果表明,尽管研究生签证计划的引入吸引了更多的国际学生/毕业生进入澳大利亚,但我们的分析强调,决定留在澳大利亚的国际毕业生的平均工作条件恶化了。将这些结果与他们的国内(澳大利亚)毕业生同行进行比较,发现这不是由于澳大利亚经济在考虑期间的整体状况。

Institutions, smart specialisation dynamics and policy 制度、智能专业化动态和政策
Pub Date : 2016-02-01 DOI: 10.1177/0263774X15614694
Markus Grillitsch
Smart specialisation features prominently in the European regional policy context. This paper discusses how the configuration of the regional institutional framework affects smart specialisation dynamics and policy. It elaborates why and how institutional diversity and integration promote entrepreneurial discovery processes, spillovers and agglomeration effects, and thereby structural change in regions. Policy challenges arising from the regional institutional framework are identified, discussed and related to well-researched system failures of regional innovation systems.
智能专业化在欧洲地区政策背景下具有突出的特点。本文讨论了区域制度框架的配置如何影响智能专业化的动态和政策。它阐述了制度多样性和整合为什么以及如何促进企业发现过程、溢出效应和集聚效应,从而促进区域结构变化。从区域制度框架中产生的政策挑战被识别、讨论并与区域创新系统的系统失效相关。

The costs of the economic crisis: which scenario for the European regions? 经济危机的代价:欧洲地区将面临何种局面?

Although the crisis is a world phenomenon, its impact is not at all spatially invariant. The aim of the article is to analyse the spatial effects of the crisis, doing so through a scenario-building exercise in which policies are kept constant, and economic growth is mainly driven by macroeconomic and supply side trends on the assumption that the crisis will end in 2015. The final goal is to raise awareness of policy makers on the costs of the present economic crisis and on their spatial impacts, so as to direct growth policies towards more targeted interventions. Our results show that the crisis produces structural breaks in local economy growth patterns; after years of convergence, regional disparities will rise due to an increase in intra-regional disparities, only partially limited by international convergence, strongly reduced in the years of crisis. The scenario is developed thanks to the MASST3 model, a regional growth forecasting model recently updated and enlarged to be able to forecast the impact of the crisis.
尽管这场危机是一种世界现象,但其影响在空间上并非一成不变。本文的目的是分析危机的空间效应,通过一个场景构建练习来实现,其中政策保持不变,经济增长主要由宏观经济和供给侧趋势驱动,假设危机将在2015年结束。最终目标是提高决策者对当前经济危机的代价及其空间影响的认识,以便将增长政策导向更有针对性的干预措施。研究结果表明,金融危机导致地方经济增长模式出现结构性断裂;经过多年的趋同,由于区域内差距的扩大,区域差距将扩大,仅部分受到国际趋同的限制,在危机时期大幅缩小。该情景的制定得益于MASST3模型,该模型是最近更新和扩大的区域增长预测模型,能够预测危机的影响。

In regions whose industrial structure is organized around one or more large firm corporations, the best practices of small and medium enterprises depend on where firms are located in the supply chain. This paper studies 351 small and medium enterprises in the Antofagasta Region in Chile between 2007 and 2008, where multinational and public mining companies are the drivers of the local economy and the government is promoting the formation of a mining cluster. Structural equation model is used to show that first-tier small and medium enterprise mining suppliers, directly related to large corporations, follow business practices that promote international certification, quality control, and investment in innovation, while in contrast second-tier small and medium enterprises are more focused on avoiding insolvency and client orientation. These results cast doubt on the formation of a mining cluster in the region and suggest the need for differentiated policies in these two groups of small and medium enterprises, especially those related to knowledge transfer.
在产业结构围绕一家或多家大型企业组织的地区,中小型企业的最佳实践取决于企业在供应链中的位置。本文研究了智利安托法加斯塔地区2007 - 2008年的351家中小企业,跨国和上市矿业公司是当地经济的驱动力,政府正在推动矿业集群的形成。结构方程模型表明,与大企业直接相关的一线中小企业矿业供应商遵循促进国际认证、质量控制和创新投资的商业惯例,而二线中小企业则更注重避免破产和以客户为导向。这些结果使人怀疑该区域是否会形成一个采矿集群,并建议需要对这两类中小型企业采取不同的政策,特别是与知识转移有关的政策。

This article addresses the differentiated impacts of various sectors and branches in a multi-layer spatial system. The key question is whether in an interdependent spatial system – comprising a local, regional and national component – one or more core industries or sectors can be identified that may act as strategic handles for long-range sustainable development of a local economy. As a case study, the Cairngorms National Park in Scotland is used. In this area, policy makers – at different administrative levels – strongly emphasize the need for new sustainable economic development. We use a novel combination of stakeholder analysis (with household questionnaires) and multi-level interregional input–output analysis to identify which critical local key sectors are acting as carriers for local sustainability. The methodological vehicle employed in our study is based on microsimulation, as a tool to cope with limited data availability. This paper demonstrates how, even for small areas such as the Cairngorms National Park in Scotland, survey information combined with secondary data and existing input–output tables can be integrated into a useful policy toolbox for local sustainable development in a broader regional-national context.
本文探讨了多层次空间系统中各部门和分支的差异影响。关键的问题是,在一个由地方、区域和国家组成部分组成的相互依存的空间系统中,能否确定一个或多个核心工业或部门,作为地方经济长期可持续发展的战略支柱。作为一个案例研究,我们以苏格兰的凯恩戈姆国家公园为例。在这方面,不同行政级别的决策者强烈强调需要新的可持续经济发展。我们使用利益相关者分析(与家庭问卷)和多层次区域间投入产出分析的新颖组合来确定哪些关键的地方关键部门是当地可持续发展的载体。在我们的研究中采用的方法载体是基于微观模拟,作为一种工具来应对有限的数据可用性。本文展示了如何在更广泛的区域-国家背景下,将调查信息与二手数据和现有投入产出表相结合,整合到一个有用的政策工具箱中,以促进当地的可持续发展,即使是像苏格兰的凯恩戈姆国家公园这样的小区域。

Despite significant public resources devoted to promoting innovation and entrepreneurship, there is little agreement about how to measure outcomes toward achieving the larger objectives of economic development. This paper starts by defining economic development and then considers the role of government, arguing that public policy should focus on building capacities that are beyond the ability of the market to provide. This shifts the debate toward a neutral role of government as a builder of capacities that enable economic agents, individuals, firms, or communities to realize their potential.
尽管有大量的公共资源用于促进创新和创业,但对于如何衡量实现经济发展这一更大目标的结果,人们几乎没有达成一致。本文首先定义了经济发展,然后考虑了政府的作用,认为公共政策应侧重于建设超出市场能力的能力。这使辩论转向了政府作为能力建设者的中立角色,使经济主体、个人、企业或社区能够实现其潜力。

Previous studies have acknowledged the ineffectiveness of enterprise policy. However, the reasons for its ineffectiveness remain a matter for debate. This study examines the extent to which the ineffectiveness of enterprise policy can be attributed to the way it has been implemented. Interviews with central government policy-makers, Regional Development Agency staff and business development managers in local enterprise agencies during the Labour administration (2007–2010) revealed that the implementation process of enterprise policy initiatives is complex and confusing, with fragmented relationships between the actors involved. The abundance of enterprise policy initiatives being delivered at the time, the absence of clearly defined objectives, the limited emphasis on the delivery of business support and the lack of measurement and evaluation combined to create an unnecessarily complicated process of enterprise policy implementation which, in turn, reduced its effectiveness.
以往的研究已经承认企业政策的无效。然而,其无效的原因仍然是一个有争议的问题。本研究考察了企业政策的无效在多大程度上可归因于其实施方式。在劳工行政期间(2007-2010)对中央政府政策制定者、区域发展署工作人员和地方企业机构业务发展经理的访谈显示,企业政策举措的实施过程复杂而混乱,所涉及的行动者之间的关系支离破碎。当时交付的大量企业政策活动、缺乏明确定义的目标、对业务支持交付的有限强调以及缺乏度量和评估相结合,产生了不必要的企业政策实施的复杂过程,而这反过来又降低了其有效性。

The abundance of enterprise policy initiatives being delivered at the time, the absence of clearly defined objectives, the limited emphasis on the delivery of business support and the lack of measurement and evaluation combined to create an unnecessarily complicated process of enterprise policy implementation which, in turn, reduced its effectiveness.","PeriodicalId":232420,"journal":{"name":"Environment and Planning C: Government and Policy","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131803904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article aims to investigate the economic integration between the European Union and its neighbouring countries by exploring the location drivers of Italian Multinational Enterprises in 33 destination countries including the New Member States of the European Union and the European Neighbouring Countries. The article compares market- and efficiency-seeking motivations with asset-seeking strategies. The analysis is based on a mixed-methods approach. The quantitative analysis assesses the location determinants of 518 Italian Multinational Enterprises that invested in the area in the years 2003–2008, whereas qualitative information on strategic location decisions is collected by means of in-depth interviews with executives in two of the largest Italian Multinational Enterprises active in the region. Market-seeking considerations are still predominant drivers of location decisions in European Union Neighbouring Countries together with resource-seeking motivations. However, different Multinational Enterprises develop diversified strategies to increase their access to these areas, which are of increasing interest for global investors.
本文旨在通过探索意大利跨国企业在包括欧盟新成员国和欧洲邻国在内的33个目的地国家的区位驱动因素,来研究欧盟与其邻国之间的经济一体化。本文比较了市场追求动机和效率追求动机与资产追求策略。分析是基于混合方法的方法。定量分析评估了2003-2008年间在该地区投资的518家意大利跨国企业的区位决定因素,而通过对活跃在该地区的两家最大的意大利跨国企业的高管进行深入访谈,收集了战略区位决策的定性信息。寻求市场的考虑和寻求资源的动机仍然是欧盟邻国选址决策的主要驱动因素。然而,不同的跨国企业制定了多样化的战略,以增加进入这些地区的机会,这些地区对全球投资者越来越感兴趣。
