Territorial capital and regional growth : increasing returns in cognitive knowledge use
Capello, Roberta; Caragliu, Andrea; Nijkamp, Peter - 2009
Knowledge drives the growth of nations and regions in a competitive space-economy. Hence, we would expect a strong correlation between investments in R&D, knowledge and learning processes, on the one hand, and productivity increases, on the other. However, the empirical evidence shows consistent...

Smile-and-go : regional performance through global value chains in Europe
Capello, Roberta; Dellisanti, Roberto - In: Papers in regional science : the journal of the … 103 (2024) 2, pp. 1-10
By applying the smile curve concept to regional value added growth rather than to levels, the paper claims that local value-added growth increases when a region is specialised in scarce natural resources or scarce human skills within a GVC. Under these circumstances, in fact, the region can...

Decentralization, social capital and regional convergence
Mauro, Luciano; Pigliaru, Francesco - 2013
By studying the interaction between social capital and decentralization, we show that political decentralization can be a source of divergence across heterogeneous regions. In particular, we claim that since the local endowments of social capital display their effect on the economy mainly...

Knowledge, innovation and economic growth : spatial heterogeneity in Europe
Capello, Roberta; Lenzi, Camilla - 2012
In this paper, we aim at re-assessing the undisputed positive relationship between innovation and economic growth by questioning the view that R&D (and formal knowledge in general) equates innovation and innovation equates regional growth. We rather propose that these linkages are strongly...

convergence of GDP per worker observed across the European regions, in the absence of data on regional TFP. Second, the spatial … regional convergence in Europe. As for the first issue, our aim is to assess whether the convergence observed across European … regions is due to convergence in technology as well as to convergence in capital-labour ratios. We first develop a growth …
