Regional inequality in Europe: evidence, theory and policy implications (2019, unknown): “…concentration of power and value creation in certain cities and regions in advanced economies has paired with the widespread diffusion of low-tier activities towards certain places in lagging-behind regions and developing countries (Iammarino and McCann, 2013, 2018; Crescenzi and Iammarino, 2017).”
Global investments and regional development trajectories: the missing links (2016, unknown): “GLOBAL FIRMS’ NETWORKS AND REGIONAL CONNECTIVITY Connectivity and global investment flows: spatial extent, nature and directionality Three key features of the current phase of economic globalization have direct geographical implications (Iammarino & McCann, 2013).”
Zoom in, zoom out: Geographic scale and multinational activity (2018, background): “…from international economic geography, which suggest that a simple home-host country dichotomy is no longer sufficient to capture the complexity of international production, trade and especially of innovation (Fujita, Krugman, & Venables, 1999; Iammarino & McCann, 2013; Meyer, et al., 2011).”
Global networks, local specialisation and regional patterns of innovation (2020, background): “The small coefficient of external subsidiaries suggests that not all outward investments have the same beneficial effects on local innovation performance, because they may be knowledge-exploiting rather than knowledge-seeking (Iammarino and McCann, 2013).”
Towards economically dynamic Special Economic Zones in emerging countries (2018, unknown): “…low-tech standard manufacturing industries, such as textiles, based on a traditional cost advantage, the emergence of Global Production Networks (GPNs) also contributed to this development (Baldwin, 2011; Coe & Yeung, 2015; Henderson, Dicken, Hess, Coe, & Yeung, 2002; Iammarino & McCann, 2013).”
Innovation in and from emerging economies: New insights and lessons for international business research (2021, background): “That is, how both its own geographically distributed operations contribute to this portfolio and those of other non-affiliated actors located in proximity to them (Iammarino & McCann, 2013; Narula & Santangelo, 2012).”
Agents of Structural Change: The Role of Firms and Entrepreneurs in Regional Diversification (2018, background): “In fact, successful MNEs derive some of their competitive strength from their capacity to integrate the regional resources in different locations through their networks of subsidiaries (Alcácer and Chung 2007; Iammarino and McCann 2013).”
Smart Specialization, Regional Growth and Applications to European Union Cohesion Policy (2015, background): “The reason for this is that ICTs are complements for knowledge-intensive activities requiring highly frequent face-to-face interactions (GASPAR and GLAESER, 1998; MCCANN, 2007), while at the same they are substitutes for routinized activities (IAMMARINO and MCCANN, 2013).”
Applying and advancing internalization theory: The multinational enterprise in the twenty-first century (2019, background): “Other than this observation, it is perhaps telling that the papers in this special issue have stayed away from locational issues within internalization theory, even as economic geography has come to rely on the tenets of internalization (Iammarino & McCann, 2013; Mudambi et al., 2018).”
Foreign Location Choice: Review and Extensions (2016, unknown): “…theory does not address why MNEs select certain locations over others with sufficient rigor as ‘locational variables are virtually non-existent . . . and overlook(s) the structural imperfections related to socio-economic and institutional geographical contexts’ (Iammarino and McCann 2013, p. 52).”
