The ‘internal’ geography of multi-unit firms
Over the past two decades, economic geography has generated important insights into how multi-unit firms distribute functions across space and with what consequences for territorial development. This commentary synthesizes the field’s key contributions to date, highlighting core findings from past research and pointing to promising directions for future enquiry. Particular emphasis is placed on the interplay between intra-firm micropolitics and i…
Exposure to Ofdi and regional labour markets
This article explores the role of subnational geography in the analysis of the consequences of Outward Foreign Direct Investment (OFDI) for workers performing different typologies of jobs. We qualify jobs according to their knowledge content, degree of tradability and response to agglomeration economies. While the former two dimensions are key to signal the intensity to OFDI exposure of different typologies of jobs, the latter contributes to expl…
Innovation in risky markets
This article analyses the relationship between firm’s perception of market risk and engagement in innovation. We conceptualise this relationship by integrating insights from the management literature on innovation barriers with those derived from the international business and economic geography perspectives on the interplay of ownership and location advantages. By exploiting a firm-level panel dataset based on the UK Innovation Survey for the pe…

The impact of European Cohesion Policy in urban and rural regions
The impact of European Cohesion Policy in urban and rural regions. Regional Studies. This paper presents an evaluation exercise on the impact of European Cohesion Policy on the economic performance of the most disadvantaged European areas (Objective 1 regions) for the programming period 2000–06. By performing the analysis at NUTS-3 rather than NUTS-2 level to exploit the exogeneity of the treatment status in the context of a regression discontinu…
Evidence on immigrants’ assimilation into recipient labour markets using UK longitudinal data between 1981 and 2006
How well do immigrants entering the UK assimilate into recipient labour markets? Using the underexploited, sizeable and long Lifetime Labour Market Database between 1981 and 2006, we investigate the evolution of the immigrant–native earnings gap—a measure of immigrants’ assimilation—across the entire earnings distribution, across cohorts and across nationalities. We are able to control for observable and unobservable individual-specific character…
Does skilled migration foster innovative performance? Evidence from British local areas
Social Capital and the Innovative Performance of Italian Provinces
Social capital has remained relatively underexplored in innovation literature due to the lack of consensus on the most suitable operationalisation for the analysis of innovative dynamics. This paper aims to fill this gap by looking at social capital as propensity towards civicness and prosocial behaviour that facilitates the circulation of nonredundant knowledge among otherwise disconnected groups. The quantitative analysis of the innovative perf…
