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...

The effect of migration on income growth and convergence: meta-analytic evidence
Ozgen, Ceren; Nijkamp, Peter; Poot, Jacques - 2009
long-run real income convergence and derive 67 comparable effect sizes. The precision-weighted estimate of beta convergence … is more consistent with endogenous self-reinforcing growth than with neoclassical convergence. Introducing a net … migration variable in a growth regression increases the estimate of beta convergence slightly. Studies that use panel models or …

Agglomeration, innovation and regional development : theoretical perspectives and meta-analysis
Groot, Henri L. F. de; Poot, Jacques; Smit, Martijn J. - 2007
Innovation and technological change are central to the quest for regional development. In the globally-connected knowledge-driven economy, the relevance of agglomeration forces that rely on proximity continues to increase, paradoxically despite declining real costs of information, communication...

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...

Longhi, Simonetta; Nijkamp, Peter; Poot, Jacques - 2009 - Version: 23 July 2009
A burgeoning literature has emerged during the last two decades to assess the economic impacts of immigration on host countries. In recent years much research has been at the national level under the assumption that impacts in open regions may dissipate through adjustment processes such as...
