Beschreibung
In this era of ongoing globalization a coherent vision on Europe’s
changing geo-economy is more important than ever before. Drawing on the
work of Schumpeter, Fourasti’e and Perroux, the book at hand offers a new
and policy-oriented perspective on regional economic change in Europe.
Conceptually, it develops a middle-range theory by extending Schumpeter’s
vision with a sectoral and spatial dimension. This neo-Schumpeterian
framework is concretized by exploring fifty years of structural change in
Sardinia, the Ruhrgebiet and the Öresund.
