Unlocking regional integration in South America? Cross-border cooperation challenges in the Bioceanic Road Corridor
Narrowing Indeterminacy
Outsourcing labor is a well-established strategy that enables lead firms to reduce production costs. Still, it also presents managerial challenges related to coordinating actors across production networks and maintaining uninterrupted production and commodity circulation flows. In this context, operational disruptions caused by worker mobilizations are a key concern for lead firms operating within global production networks (GPNs). This article e…
Is there a relationship between shift work patterns and long-distance commuting in mining regions? Insights from the Chilean mining industry
The abandoned, the depressed, and the sacrificed
This commentary broadens the terms of the debate on left-behind places. It revisits the theoretical roots of discussions about uneven development to incorporate Global South experiences and proposes a typology to understand the processes underlying abandoned, depressed, and sacrificed places
Labor regimes, long-distance commuting, and the spaces of production and social reproduction in large-scale mining
The modern mining industry’s capital–labor dynamic centers on mobilizing workers from distant urban areas to extraction sites, operating under roster and long-distance commuting (LDC) system. Commonly explained as a cost-saving strategy or individual worker choice, this study challenges prevailing interpretations by embedding LDC within mining labor regimes to show the broader socio-ecological contexts that explain this phenomenon. Through a qual…
Towards studying the developmental consequences of regional industrial path development
A major reason for the great interest in regional industrial path development (RIPD) is the associated hopes for positive regional development outcomes. However, up to now we know surprisingly little about the often mixed economic, social and ecological effects of RIPD for regions. Existing studies on RIPD tend not to link to these outcomes. This special collection aims to improve our understanding of the conditions under which RIPD contributes t…
The impact of long‐distance commuting on salaries and employment in host regions in Chile
Long‐distance commuting (LDC) is an increasingly relevant strategy of labor mobility worldwide and is therefore key to understanding the structure and dynamics of labor markets. However, little is known about the effect that LDC has on the labor market equilibrium of host territories. This paper addresses this gap for the case of Chile. While LDC is a useful strategy for improving salary and employment on a national scale, our results show a nega…
More than an inter-scalar mediator
Recent contributions to the global production networks (GPN) literature delve into public governance as mediation between global networks and regional assets. They deal with the state as a buyer, producer and regulator. Further developing this line of research, the present article goes beyond inter-scalar mediation, explaining how Chile's National Mining Company (ENAMI, by its Spanish acronym) directly ties domestic production to international ma…
Why multinational development corridors don’t move ahead
Development corridors have become a key tool of economic policy in the Global South. Yet, it appears that many of these mega-projects already fail at the stage of implementation. The article deals with three problems that corridors face. Corresponding ideas are drawn from existing literature, and confirmed and expanded against the backdrop of a case study on the Bioceanic Corridor, which connects the central west of Brazil via Paraguay and Argent…
(Un)linking industrial path development and development outcomes through asset mobilisation
New industrial paths do not necessarily translate into regional economic development. This article investigates how the nature of asset mobilisation for path development affects the way new industries generate developmental outcomes. We analyse how a changing human capital mobilisation in the mining service supplier industry in Antofagasta (Chile) affected regional development opportunities. The declining territorial embeddedness of mining-relate…

"Las redes de actores en el Corredor Vial Bioceánico "Mato Grosso do Sul - Puertos del Norte de Chile
El Corredor Vial Bioceánico (CVB) entre Brasil, Paraguay, Argentina y Chile es un proyecto cuyo principal objetivo es ofrecer nuevas oportunidades de desarrollo las regiones periféricas y sin acceso al mar del trópico de Capricornio. Sin embargo, la transformación regional necesita algo más que la construcción de infraestructura. Particularmente requiere una coordinación efectiva entre distintos actores para alcanzar el desarrollo. El objetivo pr…
Resource Dependence and Regional Development
How natural resource dependence affects regional development is a long‐lived controversy in human, political, and economic geography. While initial contributions to this topic had an explicit regional perspective, the controversy about whether the resource dependence is a curse or a blessing has been dominated by methodological nationalism since the 1980s. The creation of a broad and nondeterministic framework capable of explaining development op…
Trade agreements and participation in global value chains
The rise of global sourcing implies a heterogeneous relationship between buyers and suppliers regarding the liberalisation scenarios in emerging countries. This paper analyses the effect of regional trade agreements (RTAs) on participation in the Global Value Chains of Latin American countries between 1995 and 2015. We combine the framework of gravity equations with the trade in value‐added, applying a Pseudo Poisson Maximum Likelihood (PPML) est…
Adapting education to industry 4.0
Objective: this study conducts a comparison among three countries (i.e., Colombia, Germany, and South Korea) on the adaptation process of their educational systems within the framework of Industry 4.0. Method: a comparative study of multiple cases to analyze the differences between these countries, which are considered as ideal types of events in central and peripheral countries to understand the differences and similarities among their education…

Bridges over troubled water? Journals, geographers and economists in the field of economy and space 1980-2017
This article analyses the evolution of the field of studies of space and economy (economic geography) between 1980 and 2017. Using a sample of 55 journals from the Web of Science, we study the existing subfields of research, the interaction between communities of geographers and economists and the changing role played by those journals that act as bridges for dialogue between these communities. For this purpose, we analyse the Bibliographic Coupl…
An invitation to the dark side of economic geography
This exchange urges economic geographers working within several major extant schools of thought to pay greater attention to uneven economic development in general and the dark side of the economic geographies in particular
Un análisis espacial del emprendimiento en Chile
La promocin del emprendimiento se ha convertido en la ltima dcada en una de las principales polticas de la estrategia de desarrollo en Chile y se ha planteado como un medio para mejorar el desarrollo local. Este artculo utiliza una definicin ocupacional del emprendimiento, para estudiar si el aumento del nmero de emprendedores sin tener en cuenta su dimensin espacial es una poltica apropiada. Para ello se examinan los patrones de localizacin comu…
Encore for the Enclave
Conceptual innovation with respect to the enclave concept has been virtually absent compared with industry agglomerations. This is despite the fact that some varieties of agglomeration distinguished in the literature appear to come close to what previously were regarded as industrial enclaves and despite frequent allusions to the enclave nature of economic spaces produced by contemporary processes of globalization. Bringing the literature on aggl…

Increasing Returns, Comparative Advantage, and History
Natural resource endowment is a necessary but insufficient condition to explain the formation of a durable mining city. This article focuses on the dynamic and endogenous factors that give rise to increasing returns to scale as a key element in understanding the formation and sustainability of this type of urban agglomeration. It is also necessary to consider historical perspectives to overcome the limitations of location theory and the "new" eco…

La conmutación regional en Chile y su impacto en la Región de Antofagasta
Th e growing distance between the place where people work and the place where people live has given rise to interregional commutation fl ows whose impact on local economies has still received scant attention.
