Regional advantage and the geography of networks
Networks, Space and Organizational Performance
Huggins R., Izushi H. and Prokop D. Networks, space and organizational performance: a study of the determinants of industrial research income generation by universities, Regional Studies. This paper examines the extent to which both network structure and spatial factors impact on the organizational performance of universities as measured by the generation of industrial research income. Drawing on data concerning the interactions of universities i…
Knowledge-based Development in Leading Regions across the Globe
It is widely observed that the global geography of innovation is rapidly evolving. This paper presents evidence concerning the contemporary evolution of the globe’s most productive regions. The paper uncovers the underlying structure and co-evolution of knowledge-based resources, capabilities and outputs across these regions. The analysis identifies two key trends by which the economic evolution and growth patterns of these regions are differenti…
What Does Endogenous Growth Theory Tell about Regional Economies? Empirics of R&D Worker-based Productivity Growth
Izushi H. What does endogenous growth theory tell about regional economies? Empirics of R&D worker-based productivity growth, Regional Studies. Endogenous growth theory emerged in the 1990s as 'new growth theory' accounting for technical progress in the growth process. This paper examines the role of research and development (R&D) workers underlying the Romer model (1990) and its subsequent modifications, and compares it with a model based on the…
Competing for Knowledge
With the buzzwords of knowledge-based economy and knowledge-driven economy, policy-makers, as well as journalists and management consultants, are pushing forward a vision of change that transforms the way advanced economies work. Yet little is understood about how the knowledge-based economy differs from the old, traditional economy. It is generall
Industry Evolution and Cross-Sectoral Skill Transfers
In this paper we explore the interrelationship between technological progress and the formation of industry-specific skills by analysing the evolution of the video-game industry in three countries: Japan, the United States, and the United Kingdom. We argue that the cross-sectoral transfer of skills occurs differently depending on national contexts, such as the social legitimacy and strength of preexisting industries, the socioeconomic status of e…
Hardware gimmick or cultural innovation? Technological, cultural, and social foundations of the Japanese video game industry
Can a Development Agency Foster Co-operation Among Local Firms? The Case of the Welsh Development Agency's Supplier Association Programme
IZUSHI H. (1999) Can a development agency foster co-operation among local firms? The case of the Welsh Development Agency's Supplier Association Programme, Reg. Studies 33 , 739-750. There is growing interest in policies promoting inter-firm co-operation to diffuse best practice in manufacturing. Examining the Welsh Development Agency's programme that helps local firms set up supplier associations, this paper demonstrates that it not only facilit…
Conflict Between Two Industrial Networks
IZUSHI H. (1997) Conflict between two industrial networks: technological adaptation and inter-firm relationships in the ceramics industry in Seto, Japan, Reg. Studies 31, 117‐129. An examination of technological adaptation by small and medium sized firms in a Japanese district of traditional ceramics manufacturing, which has moved into high technology applications, reveals contrasting attitudes of the firms toward regional co-operation. Firms wer…
