  • Regional Economic Inequality in Poland

    Open AccessKatarzyna A Kurek, Wim Heijman et al.ARTICLESocial Indicators Research2026References: 4

    This study investigates regional productivity disparities in Poland at the NUTS-3 level, comparing the results of 2018 with 2005. Using a revised Shift-Share method, we examine the change in indicators to examine how regional productivity has evolved since Poland acceded to the EU.

  • Re-examining the social gradient in health

    Open AccessKristina Thompson, Johan Van OphemARTICLESSM - Population Health2023

Often, social gradients are not found in historical contexts. This is perhaps because historical studies use mortality as…

By non-parametric tests we show that there is a significant correlation between the PCA and AHP local competitiveness indexes. Thereafter, a developed mixed…

    We find evidence that financial security's influence on health outcomes may vary in different contexts. This may be an important aspect of determining the Great Recession's influence on health outcomes. Our study is a first step in understanding how the relationships between financial security and health may differ in countries with different experiences of the Great Recession

  • Responsible innovation by social entrepreneurs

    Open AccessRob Lubberink, Vincent Blok et al.ARTICLEJournal of Responsible Innovation2019

    The upcoming concept of responsible innovation seems to gain foothold in Europe and beyond, but it still remains unknown how it can be implemented in the business context.

It is based on an empirical investigation of 42 case studies of best-prac…
