Path Creation as a Process of Resource Alignment and Anchoring: Industry Formation for On-Site Water Recycling in Beijing (2016, background): “In the wake of an evolutionary turn, economic geography has witnessed lively debates on path dependency and the determinants of regional path creation (Boschma and Frenken 2006; Boschma and Martin 2010; Essletzbichler and Rigby 2007; Martin and Sunley 2006).”
Transformation of regional innovation systems : from old legacies to new development paths (2012, background): “…lead to changes of such routines, enabling organisations to adapt to new framework conditions or even strategically manipulate their environment (Essletzbichler and Rigby, 2007) Looking at firms (i.e. the knowledge application system) there is plenty of evidence on the importance of new…”
Revisiting the Tourism-Led Economic Growth Hypothesis: The Case of China (2018, background): “They suggest that whether an industry generates increasing returns or diminishing returns depends on time, especially the evolution of the industry life cycle (Boschma and Lambooy 1999; Essletzbichler and Rigby 2007).”
The emergence of new technology-based industries: the case of fuel cells and its technological relatedness to regional knowledge bases (2016, background): “In recent decades, the field of economic geography has experienced what has been called an ‘evolutionary turn’ (Martin and Sunley, 2006; Boschma and Martin, 2007; Essletzbichler and Rigby, 2007; Grabher, 2009; Boschma and Martin, 2010) inspired by the field of evolutionary economics (Nelson and Wint”
Rethinking resort growth: understanding evolving governance strategies in Whistler, British Columbia (2011, background): “…has spawned a growing social science interest in ways of using evolutionary approaches to conceptualize change (e.g. Boschma & Martin, 2007; Essletzbichler & Rigby, 2007; MacKinnon, Cumbers, Pike, Birch, & McMaster, 2009; Mahoney, 2000; Pierson, 2000; Pike, Birch, Cumber, MacKinnon, &…”
The Geography of Complex Knowledge (2017, background): “These capabilities are often built up over long periods of time, and they shape the environment in which subsequent choices are made (Essletzbichler and Rigby 2007).”
Evolution in Economic Geography: Institutions, Political Economy, and Adaptation (2009, background): “The first of these concerns the tendency of some recent contributions to separate EEG from institutional economic geography (Boschma and Frenken 2006; Boschma and Martin 2007; Essletzbichler and Rigby 2007), risking a certain epistemological relegation of institutions and social agency.”
Towards a Developmental Turn in Evolutionary Economic Geography? (2015, background): “Over recent decades, however, there have been increasing moves to overcome what an expanding number of evolutionary theorists see as key limitations of the Modern Synthesis, including the tenets of VSR.”
Renewable Energy Technology and Path Creation: A Multi-scalar Approach to Energy Transition in the UK (2012, background): “Changes may also be triggered by strong selection (landscape) pressures (such as new environmental regulations) that reshuffle national and local efficiency hierarchies (Essletzbichler & Rigby, 2007).”
The city as innovation machine (2017, background): “New industries owe their spatial pattern to specific firms’ behaviors, which are assumed to have a spatial inertia (Dosi, 1997; Essletzbichler and Rigby, 2007; Frenken et al., 2007; Hodgson and Knudsen, 2004).”
Path Renewal in Old Industrial Regions: Possibilities and Limitations for Regional Innovation Policy (2015, background): “More recently this debate has gained further momentum through the evolutionary turn in economic geography (BOSCHMA and FRENKEN, 2006; BOSCHMA and MARTIN, 2010; ESSLETZBICHLER and RIGBY, 2007; MARTIN and SUNLEY, 2007).”
Evolutionary agglomeration theory: increasing returns, diminishing returns, and the industry life cycle (2011, background): “…number of economic geographers have proposed that whether agglomeration generates increasing returns or diminishing returns is dependent on time, and especially the evolution of the industry life cycle (Boschma and Lambooy, 1999; Maskell and Malmberg, 2007; Essletzbichler and Rigby, 2007).”
‘Nothing includes everything’: towards engaged pluralism in Anglophone economic geography (2010, background): “A good review of evolutionary economic geography is found in Essletzbichler and Rigby (2007).”
