• Defining and Measuring Social Cohesion (2010, background): “Sometimes termed the competitiveness-cohesion-governance problematic (Buck et al., 2005), in this view, shared by academics and policy-makers, ‘success’ in the world of ‘after-neoliberalism’ depends on a combination of economic competitiveness, social cohesion and responsive governance.”
• Agglomeration, clusters, and industrial policy (2013, background): “…of economic performance in service-orientated developed countries—which had, until recently, experienced rapid urban decline as structural change affected many former industrial cities (see, inter alia , Boddy and Parkinson (2004), Buck et al. (2004), Overman and Rice (2008), and Glaeser (2011)).”
• Towards Sustainable Cities: Extending Resilience with Insights from Vulnerability and Transition Theory (2013, background): “Recent research on London and other leading European cities has demonstrated the economic value and strength derived from dense local networks of business suppliers and services [30,31].”
• Urban Competitiveness and Public Procurement for Innovation (2011, background): “In addition, a growing variety of empirical as well as theoretical studies published during the past decade concentrate specifically on urban and regional competitiveness (Porter, 1995; Begg, 2002; Boddy and Parkinson, 2004; Buck et al., 2005; OECD, 2006a).”
• Exploring the ‘New Rural Paradigm’ in Europe: Eco-economic strategies as a counterforce to the global competitiveness agenda (2014, background): “Indeed, the ‘conventional wisdom’ is that nations, regions and cities have to be more competitive to survive in the new marketplace that is being forged by globalisation and the rise of new information technologies (Buck et al., 2005).”
• Integrated urban renewal in The Netherlands: a critical appraisal (2008, background): “Buck et al. (2005) speak for the UK about the new conventional wisdom (NCW) related to cities, pointing to the consensus that has developed and that expects healing capacity from competitiveness, cohesion and governance.”
