Towards a comprehensive understanding of new regional industrial path development (2019, background): “As noted in the introduction, recent work suggests that fine-grained typologies are required to grasp various forms of (new) path development (Isaksen et al., 2018; Isaksen & Trippl, 2016; Martin & Sunley, 2006).”
Regional resilience: theoretical and empirical perspectives (2010, background): “1 See special issue of Journal of Economic Geography and Martin and Sunley (2006).”
Perspectives on Cluster Evolution: Critical Review and Future Research Issues (2015, background): “This critique relates to Martin and Sunely (2006) who have posed the question whether path dependence does need a theory of human agency.”
How to Turn the Fate of Old Industrial Areas: A Comparison of Cluster-Based Renewal Processes in Styria and the Saarland (2009, background): “A cost-reduction response to a severe crisis is not a viable way forward, whereas a search for market niches and an orientation on innovation promises better results (Chapman et al, 2004; Martin and Sunley, 2006).”
Knowledge flow and inter-firm networks: The influence of network resources, spatial proximity and firm size (2010, background): “The utilization of regionally external knowledge partners indicates that innovation alliances are not spatially constrained within regions, suggesting that those firms possessing these links are not locked-in to path-dependent systems of development (Arthur 1989 ; Boschma and Frenken 2006 ; Labian”
Towards an Evolutionary Perspective on Regional Resilience (2015, background): “New growth paths can be understood as new path creation but also path renewal, as long as these are distinct from existing regional paths (MARTIN and SUNLEY, 2006; GARUD et al., 2010).”
The emerging empirics of evolutionary economic geography (2011, background): “One such programme has been Evolutionary Economic Geography (Storper, 1997; Boschma and Lambooy, 1999; Boschma and Frenken, 2006; Martin and Sunley, 2006; Frenken, 2007; Journal of Economic Geography special issue, 2007, Economic Geography special issue, 2009; Boschma and Martin, 2010; Coe, 2010).”
The Aims and Scope of Evolutionary Economic Geography (2010, background): “This literature emphasizes that supportive institutions are often an outgrowth of emerging industries, but once they become established, institutions may obstruct their further development due to inertia and hysteresis (Setterfield 1997; Martin and Sunley, 2006).”
Path dependence and local innovation systems in city-regions (2008, background): “The answer to this question for many evolutionary economists is that once a particular pattern of socio-economic development is established, it can become cumulative and characterised by a high degree of persistence or ‘path dependence’ (Martin 2003: 27; Martin & Sunley 2006; Martin & Sunley 2009).”
Economic resilience and entrepreneurship: lessons from the Sheffield City Region (2014, background): “The evolutionary path and economic structure of a region is recognized to influence its economic future (Martin and Sunley 2006; Hassink 2010), although Section 5.1 has shown that the SCR has avoided economic decline associated with lock-in.”
Evolutionary agglomeration theory: increasing returns, diminishing returns, and the industry life cycle (2011, background): “…(1890) agglomeration economies and the industry life cycle. at U niversity of M anchester on M ay 31, 2013 http://joeg.oxfordjournals.org/ D ow nloaded from individual firms and industries that operate within territorial contexts (Martin and Sunley, 2006; Frenken and Boschma, 2007; Frenken, 2007).”
Policy activism and regional path creation: the promotion of offshore wind in North East England and Scotland (2015, methodology): “Consequently, in parallel to the R&D approach, ONE developed an industrial strategy for offshore wind, focusing on two key mechanisms of path creation: transplantation and diversification (Martin and Sunley 2006).”
