Social infrastructuring arrangements in Nordic urban area development: The professionalization of civil society associations
Area-based initiatives are local interventions in targeted neighborhoods, typically situated within broader urban development frameworks aimed at addressing segregation. This article examines area-based initiatives as forms of social infrastructure. It draws on two cases of area-based initiatives in Nordic urban residential neighborhoods, using the concept of social infra-structuring combined with a policy arrangement framework. The study shows h…
Constructing Common Meeting Places: A Strategy for Mitigating the Social Isolation of Disadvantaged Neighbourhoods
Community planning has undergone changes in direction over time, from a traditional neighbourhood approach seeking to ensure well-functioning local communities to a newer focus on the feasibility of neighbourhood-based urban renewal for combating segregation. The latter initially concentrated on the internal social relations of disadvantaged neighbourhoods, but nowadays the focus for interventions is changing towards opening up such neighbourhood…
Temporary urban activities as potential business incubators: The role of networks, time and space
Today, temporary urban activities are conceived as a strategic planning tool for both private investors and urban governments. This study discuss the potential of such urban activities to serve as incubation space for small-scale urban-based entrepreneurship. The analysis indicates that short-term arrangements and low establishment costs appeal to small-scale entrepreneurs who want to try out a business idea without major initial investment risks…
The influence of the early formation of human and social capital on inventiveness: Perspectives from a Swedish case study
What shapes the anatomy of inventors? A life-history analysis of Swedish patent inventors
Using life-history interviews on a sample of Swedish inventors, this article studies seminal sociocultural factors and milieus that are critical for the development of inventive capacities. This approach allows the inventors to reflect on and describe the milieus, actors and events in their lives which they themselves believe have formed their inventive capacities. The main findings of the article are that the sociocultural milieus of early child…
Trust and local knowledge production: Inter-organisational collaborations in the Sønderborg region, Denmark
In the knowledge based economy, knowledge production has become increasingly important for the competitiveness of firms, cities and regions and as an explanatory factor of spatial economic dynamics. In an immense amount of literature in economic geography, sociology and economics it has been argued that knowledge production often takes place in inter-organisational collaborations, and that trust is an important prerequisite for such collaboration…
The Geography of the Experience Economy in Denmark: Employment Change and Location Dynamics in Attendance-based Experience Industries
Recently the “experience economy” has been promoted as a vehicle for urban and regional growth, also in peripheral cities and regions. Little evidence is, however, provided to sustain this claim. To inform the discussion of the experience economy as a potential for urban and regional growth, the article provides an analysis of location dynamics and employment growth of a specific segment of the experience economy, the attendance-based experience …
