Repositioning national borders
Recently, ‘Cross-Border Regions’ have been extensively analysed from various geographical, political, and economic perspectives, as well as from different theoretical and analytical starting points. In the EU, a significant focus has been on de-bordering, territorial integration, and cohesion policies. However, the negative influence of national borders on cross-border networks is only briefly analysed. This paper focuses on the reduction of the …
Comparing European urban systems using dissimilarity indices
The organization, control and development of urban systems in Europe have long been subjects of debate within the field of spatial sciences. Two major research areas focus on (a) polycentricity and (b) functional differentiation, or the division of labor between cities. However, most studies only address one of these perspectives, either by considering a single country as a case study or by examining only part of an urban system. This is sometime…
Spatial effect of ethnicity on cross-border regions. Comparative analysis for a cultural aspect based on territorial and network perspectives
Cultural proximities are significant aspects that can foster or hinder integration in border regions; however, culture is underrepresented in border studies. Such cultural proximities are affected by cultural characteristics and different types of socio-cultural regional constructs, such as gesellschaft (civic societies) and gemeinschaft (ethnic communities). These characteristics influence both the level of the cultural border networks and the d…
Determinants of cross-border cultural integration
The spatial integration of cross-border regions is a complex multidimensional process. Cultural integration across borders is a crucial element in broader cross-border regionalism and the intensification of economic transactions. While cultural integration has been viewed as a contingent ontological determinant for establishing cross-border integration and cooperation, there is a lack of empirical evidence on cultural integration. This study sets…
Propositions for place-based policies in making regional innovation systems. Evidence from six high-tech industrial development zones in China
The integrating role of regional spatial planning
Policy integration is considered an essential condition for constructing a more sustainable society, but proponents of sustainable development differ in their views about what is to be integrated, what is to be developed, how to link environment and development, and for how long a time. Regional spatial planning has been a locus of attempts to resolve these differences and realise policy integration, but its mechanisms to achieve this remain less…
Patterns of knowledge bases in large city regions in Germany
Knowledge-intensive services are regarded as drivers of innovation and globalisation processes, and are mainly concentrated in large cities and metropolitan areas in the urban system. However, regionalisation processes of knowledge activities are increasing in the city-regional environment, which leads to a relief of the core cities and to an upgrading of the surrounding regions. The aim of this work was to present these regionalisation processes…
Metropolisation through Regionalisation? Spatial Scope and Anchor Points of Metropolitan Functions in German Urban Regions
Based on topics of research examining how metropolisation processes affect the areas surrounding metropolitan centres and change the locations of metropolitan functions in urban regions, this article examines: (i) how pronounced the process of the regionalisation of metropolitan functions is; (ii) in which sub‐areas of a surrounding region the regionalisation of metropolitan functions can be observed and (iii) which places are anchor points of me…
Analysing cultural networks in cross-border metropolitan regions. The case of the Upper Rhine region (Germany–Switzerland–France)
In the last few decades, cross-border metropolitan regions (CBMRs) have been examined through the lens of binary prevailing network analysis, with substantial focus being placed on economy, innovations, and governance. However, the analysis of cultural networks is underrepresented in these contexts, although several voices have enquired about new concepts and practices for measuring spatial cultural networks and social proximities. This study was…
Decentralisation and functional specialisation in super mega-city regions
Buzz at workplaces in knowledge-intensive service production
The objective of this paper is to understand temporary spatial proximity beyond temporary clusters, and to analyse rationales for the use of various spatial settings for temporary spatial proximity in the work processes of knowledge-intensive services. To contrast different types of temporary spatial proximity two basic types, ‘Meet and Mingle’ and ‘Move and Manage’, are identified. On the basis of qualitative interviews in knowledge-intensive se…
Conflicts about Urban Green Spaces in Metropolitan Areas under Conditions of Climate Change
Under conditions of climate change, land-use conflicts are a significant challenge for spatial planning, especially in densely populated metropolitan regions. By using a multi-methodological approach, this study aims to identify different stakeholders’ perceptions of these spaces in planning processes within urban areas in Germany. We use an ecosystem service analysis to evaluate the ecological potential of each selected study area and conducted …
Regional Urbanization and Knowledge-Intensive Business Activities (Kibs)
The objective of this paper is to understand the role of small and medium-sized cities as economic locations, and as potential anchor locations, in grounding processes of regional urbanization in the knowledge economy. Based on quantitative occupational data, the deconcentration processes of knowledge-intensive business activities are analyzed for the Greater Stuttgart Region in southern Germany. The way in which the different knowledge bases use…
Regional Councils in a Global Context
Propelled by the increasing global competition for location qualities and production factors of (economic) regions in the age of globalization, regional councils have been introduced on sub-national levels in a number of countries. However, the conditions to develop and to govern these regional spaces vary massively in global comparison. Based on three types of elements for the well-functioning of regional councils, in this study, ten regional co…

In recent decades, the idea of globalization has led to a multitude of theory-driven discussions regarding diverse processes of globalization. In these cases, the focus was first placed on a theore
Developing trust in face-to-face interaction of knowledge-intensive business services (Kibs)
The objective of this paper is to understand the reasons for creating temporary spatial proximity in work processes of knowledge-intensive business services. Obligations to create temporary special proximity are linked to developing processes of interpersonal trust. Based on qualitative interviews, focusing and showing appreciation are identified as drivers to create temporary spatial proximity as ‘valuable moments’ throughout project work. Undiv…
Where do Kibs workers work in Germany? Shifting patterns of Kibs employment in metropoles,regiopoles and industrialised hinterlands
When Regions Collide
Going beyond the territorial/relational divide in regional studies requires researchers to do more than examine the extent to which territoriality and relationality are complementary alternatives. The variety of networked regional spaces means it is intellectually unsustainable to simply relate a single networked regional space to territory-scale without first considering how networked regional spaces interact. Illustrated through the experience …
From places to flows? Planning for the new ‘regional world’ in Germany
Recent decades have been dominated by discourses describing a resurgence of regions. Yet despite its prominence the region remains a largely Delphian concept. In the period of new regionalist orthodoxy, for example, while it was recognized that regions take various forms, the normative claim that we were living in a ‘regional world’ became narrowly focused on regions as subnational political units. Nevertheless, the emergence of city-regions, cro…
