Regional Economies as Knowledge Laboratories illustrates how newer types of regional analysis--utilising scientometrics, knowledge services measures and university networks, and concepts such as knowledge life cycles, experimental knowledge creation, and knowledge ethics--are leading to a perception that regional economies increasingly resemble knowledge laboratoriesSummary: 1. Strategic adaptation to the knowledge economy in less favoured regions : a South Ostrobothnian University network as a case in point -- 2. Higher education and high intellectual unemployment : does education matter? : an interpretation and some critical perspectives -- 3. The geography of research collaboration : theoretical considerations and stylized facts in biotechnology in Europe and the United States -- 4. Knowledge intensive business services and regional development : consultancy in city regions in Norway -- 5. The cluster as a nexus of knowledge creation -- 6. Knowledge life cycles inside local economic systems -- 7. High-tech industry clustering rationales : the case of German biotechnology -- 8. Industry-science relationships as enhancing regional knowledge economies : a comparative perspective from Japan and the UK -- 9. Placing Ireland's transition to a knowledge economy within a global context -- 10. The spatial dimension of inter-firm learning : case study and conceptualization -- 11. Knowledge, values and territory : a case study -- 12. The "knowledge economy" : a critical view -- 13. Conclusions : regional economies as knowledge laboratories : theories, fashions and future stepsPPN: PPN: 1023433060Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-EWE
