Relational Economic Geography: A Partial Understanding or a New Paradigm? (2008, background): “They argued that the nonmarket forms of network and the local presence of institutional thickness are crucial to understanding local learning and competitiveness (Amin and Thrift 1994; Amin 1999; Martin 2000).”
Some Notes on Institutions in Evolutionary Economic Geography (2009, background): “This belief has been expressed repeatedly in our field without denying that qualitative research remains pivotal to any social science discipline (Markusen 1999; Martin 2000; McCann 2007).”
DIFFERENTIATED KNOWLEDGE BASES AND VARIETIES OF REGIONAL INNOVATION SYSTEMS (2007, background): “However, despite its emphasis on institutional complementarities, this approach considers predominantly institutions at the national level, and tends to ignore ‘the multi-scaled set of institutional forms’ (Martin, 2000, p. 89) (Asheim & Coenen, 2006).”
The Aims and Scope of Evolutionary Economic Geography (2010, background): “In the 1980s and 1990s, some adopted a regional approach to regulation theory, but this was never fully developed (Martin, 2000).”

Trinity of change agency, regional development paths and opportunity spaces (2020, background): “Institutions are carriers of social practices and routines (David, 1994), and institutional reproduction passes ingredients of the present and past into the future (Martin, 2000).”
Cultural political economy: On making the cultural turn without falling into soft economic sociology (2008, background): “The creation of Flemish ‘institutional thickness’ (Martin 2000) involves more than creating business assets and competitive institutional arrangements, as soft economic sociologists would have it, and extends to shifting the geographies of capitalist political economy.”
Institutional Thickness Revisited (2017, background): “They condition, enable, and constrain the economic vitality and innovation capacity of regions, providing legal frameworks for actions, defining communication patterns, and affecting learning possibilities (Martin 2000; Gertler 2010).”
