‘Nothing includes everything’: towards engaged pluralism in Anglophone economic geography (2010, background): “…and Frenken (2009) also draw a line separating evolutionary from institutional economic geography, decribing them as ‘orthogonal’ to one another (Boschma and Frenken, 2009: 152).16 The rhetorical implication is separation, partition, and isolation (see also comments by MacKinnon et al.,…”
Towards a Developmental Turn in Evolutionary Economic Geography? (2015, background): “The fact that progress has yet to be made on this front should not be taken to mean that evolutionary economic geographers view these features as unimportant or incompatible with their approach (BOSCHMA and FRENKEN, 2009; MARTIN, 2011).”
Institutional change in economic geography (2014, background): “Boschma and Frenken (2009), for instance, while favouring a structural understanding, apply a territorial perspective of institutions as durable structures that are specific to territories (p. 152), including markets, property rights, and the judicial system (p. 155) without clarifying why they…”
Advancing Evolutionary Economic Geography by Engaged Pluralism (2014, background): “In this view such basic institutions seem to be too widely available in space to explain adequately the evolution of new industrial regions (BOSCHMA and FRENKEN, 2009, p. 155; BOSCHMA and LAMBOOY, 1999, p. 423).”
Towards a comprehensive understanding of new regional industrial path development (2019, background): “…windows of locational opportunity are relatively open for emerging industries, because sector-specific institutions that could attract the newly emerging industries to certain locations do not yet exist and basic institutions can be found anywhere in a country (Boschma & Frenken, 2009, p. 155).”
Theorizing practice in economic geography: Foundations, challenges, and possibilities (2011, unknown): “…a growing interest in the development of an evolutionary economic geography as a means for better understanding how firms, industries, technologies, and regional economies develop and adapt in response to changing economic circumstances (Boschma and Lambooy, 1999; Boschma and Frenken, 2006; 2009).”
Entrepreneurship, Evolution and Geography (2009, background): “13 The traditional focus within evolutionary economics on the firm level concept of routines, can be complemented with the individual level concept of skills, and the environmental level concept of institutions (see for example the recent discussion on this in Boschma and Frenken 2009).”
Advancing regional innovation systems: What does evolutionary economic geography bring to the policy table? (2017, background): “Boschma and Frenken (2009) assert, “we expect the effect of (territory-specific) institutions to be small as firms develop routines in a path-dependent and idiosyncratic manner” (p. 153).”
The emerging empirics of evolutionary economic geography (2011, background): “, 2009), we suggested (Boschma and Frenken 2009) to explore more fully the political dimension of routines, as advocated by Nelson and Winter (1977, 1982).”
Path Creation as a Process of Resource Alignment and Anchoring: Industry Formation for On-Site Water Recycling in Beijing (2016, background): “In this perspective, historical accidents and the spatial distribution of ‘generic resources’, ‘capabilities’ or ‘assets’ explains early company’s locational decisions, whereas the later probability of regions for developing a new industrial paths depends on the emerging sector’s interventions in th”
Evolutionary agglomeration theory: increasing returns, diminishing returns, and the industry life cycle (2011, background): “…trade associations, supportive institutions, universities, and professional gatherings become involved with the industry, often choosing to collocate in close proximity to the firms within the agglomeration to ensure network centrality and connectivity (Boschma and Frenken, 2009; Grabher, 2009).”
