Re-engaging with rationality in economic geography: behavioural approaches and the importance of context in decision-making (2007, background): “‘cultural turn’ and the emergence of relational economic geography (Bathelt, 2003; Bathelt and Gluckler, 2005; Yeung, 2005), yet it has remained an undercurrent in recent debates about the current shape and future focus of economic geography as a discipline.”
Building Trust in Economic Space (2006, background): “…important consideration but one that has received surprisingly limited attention despite increasing interest in the relational, discursive, and communicative dimensions of economic geographies (eg, Lee and Wills, 1997; Boggs and Rantisi, 2003; Amin and Cohendet, 2004; Yeung, 2005a; 2005b).”
Geographies of circulation and exchange: constructions of markets (2009, background): “Relational thinking has been present in economic geography for quite some time now (e.g. Bathelt 2006; Boggs and Rantisi, 2003; Dicken et al., 2001; Ettlinger, 2001; Yeung, 2005).”
Islamic banking and finance: postcolonial political economy and the decentring of economic geography (2007, methodology): “Given the Qu’ranic roots of IBF, its place within Islamic economics, and recent interest in the ‘relational’ character of economic life (Yeung 2005), it may be tempting to use an ‘articulation of modes of production’ (AMOP) approach to understand the development of IBF (for example, Wolpe 1980; and ”
Geographies of production: growth regimes in spatial perspective 3 - toward a relational view of economic action and policy (2006, background): “Although not all might view their work as being part of a relational approach, their research shares important characteristics and understandings (Yeung, 2005).”
Globalizing retail: conceptualizing the distribution-based transnational corporation (TNC) (2005, background): “…of network relations’ with the key task being to understand those networks as both ‘social structures and ongoing processes . . . constituted, transformed and reproduced through asymmetrical and evolving power relations’ (Dicken et al., 2001: 105; see also Henderson et al., 2002; Yeung, 2005).”
A Network-based view of regional growth (2014, background): “…capital is an attempt to capture the importance scholars have given to the relational assets approach to explaining regional development, whereby such development is theorised to be significantly embedded in local and global networks (Bathelt and Glückler, 2003; Yeung, 2005; Lorentzen, 2008).”
Advancing Evolutionary Economic Geography by Engaged Pluralism (2014, methodology): “Instead, REG is argued to represent parts of ‘midrange theoretical themes’ (YEUNG, 2005, p. 39) because it provides a balanced view of structure and agency where identical structural preconditions do not necessarily have the same effects at any time and place (BATHELT and GLÜCKLER 2003, p. 127) but…”
Relational Economic Geography: A Partial Understanding or a New Paradigm? (2008, background): “Another example is the way in which Yeung (2005b) defined the firm as a contested site for material and discursive constructions at different scales and a legal organizational entity arising from relational constructions of social networks.”
MNEs as border-crossing multi-location enterprises: The role of discontinuities in geographic space (2013, background): “This has led geographers to study the symbiotic relationship between firms and their regional environment, in what has been dubbed the " relational turn " in EG (Beugelsdijk, 2007; Dicken & Malmberg, 2001; Henderson, Dicken, Hess, Coe, & Yeung, 2002; Yeung, 2005).”
Co-evolution in contemporary economic geography: towards a theoretical framework (2018, background): “As argued by Yeung (2005), relational thinking in economic geography originated in two different schools of research: networks and connections of certain types developed in economic sociology, and the poststructuralist approach on all forms of networks and linkages between entities.”
Institutional Thickness Revisited (2017, background): “…economic geography models but rank high on the research agenda of institutional economic geography (Gertler 2010; Rodríguez-Pose 2013); relational economic geography (Yeung 2005; Bathelt and Glückler 2011); and geographic political economy approaches (MacKinnon et al. 2009; Pike et al. 2009, 2016).”
