Advances and Challenges in Innovation Studies (2005, background): “The main result in this mainly applied and empirically oriented literature is therefore that "convergence" toward the same level of GDP per capita is not at all an automatic and necessary consequence of the process of technological development (Cappelen et al. 2003).”
The impact of European Cohesion Policy in urban and rural regions (2017, result): “Beginning with the early study by Cappelen et al. (2003), which suggests that the positive impact of Structural Funds is ‘crucially dependent on the receptiveness of the receiving environment’ (p. 640), other studies have tried to shed fresh light on the heterogeneous impact of the policy across…”

From Conditionality to Europeanization in Central and Eastern Europe: Administrative Performance and Capacity in Cohesion Policy (2014, background): “Studies have concluded that the contribution of the policy to economic development is conditional on the capacity of national and regional institutions to design robust strategies, allocate resources effectively and administer EU funding efficiently (Ederveen et al., 2002, 2006; Cappelen et al., 200”
Is the Economic Crisis Impairing Convergence in Innovation Performance Across Europe (2011, background): “In recent years increasing attention has been devoted to innovation and convergence at the sub-national regional level (see, among others, Cappelen et al., 2003; Cantwell and Iammarino, 2003; Maurseth, 2001; Moreno et al., 2005; Paci and Usai, 2009; Rodriguez-Pose, 1999).”
Government quality and the economic returns of transport infrastructure investment in European regions (2015, positive): “Studies outside the NEG framework focusing on core-periphery differences in factor endowments have reached similar conclusions (Vickerman, 1995; Cappelen et al., 2003; Rodrı́guez-Pose and Fratesi, 2004).”

Cohesion Policy in the European Union: Growth, Geography, Institutions (2011, neutral): “While some studies find that the EU development effort since the 1989 reform of the Structural Funds has had almost no impact (e.g. Boldrin and Canova, 2001; Dall’Erba and Le Gallo, 2007), others indicate that it has been a success (e.g. Cappelen et al., 2003).”
Innovation and Catching-Up (2006, background): “As members of the EU, Ireland and Portugal also received substantial economic support through the so-called “Structural Funds”, designed to induce technological and economic catch-up, and facilitate the necessary structural changes, in poorer areas in the union (Cappelen et al. 2003).”
