Spatial distribution of new firms and firm‐level innovation: Evidence from Turkey
Regional Science Policy &Practice, Volume 15, Issue 9, Page 2156-2181, December 2023., 2023 Abstract This paper examines the spatial distribution of new firms and tests the impact of new firms' agglomeration on firm‐level innovation. Our findings from a spatially unequal economy, Turkey, show that firms that are located in regions hosting more new firms have a higher propensity to be innovative.

Determinants of rural creative microclustering: Evidence from web‐scraped data for England
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 102, Issue 5, Page 903-943, October 2023., 2023 Abstract This study aims to compare the drivers of clustering of rural and urban creative industries in England. We use pre‐pandemic web‐scraped data from 154,618 creative industry organizations in England, and use a novel technique to identify 71 distinct rural creative “microclusters” of geographically proximate creative firms.

Agglomeration effects and unemployment to work: Evidence from French data
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 102, Issue 1, Page 129-166, February 2023., 2023 Abstract In this work, we explore the role of agglomeration economies on unemployment‐to‐work transition rates in French employment areas. Mobilizing administrative exhaustive data files from individuals registered at the employment agency, we estimate local transition rates that are independent of differences in local characteristics of job seekers ...

Regional Science Policy &Practice, Volume 14, Issue S2, Page 19-35, November 2022., 2022 Abstract The increasingly intensive innovative activities enable a more straightforward tracing of knowledge spillover, by looking at the spatial agglomeration of innovative activities. Existing research looked at spatial patterns of innovative activities, but few examine the spatial evolution of the innovative agglomeration.

Linking spatial economics and sequencing economics for the Osaka tourism agglomeration
Regional Science Policy &Practice, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 610-626, June 2022., 2022 Abstract An agglomeration is an organization composed of its segments such as infrastructure and institutions. Sequencing economics discusses the sequential process analysis of building the segments of an agglomeration. The concept of ‘economies of sequence’ can be defined as the selection of any two segments from among the set of segments of an ...

People and Nature, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 312-329, April 2022., 2022 Abstract Nature is perceived and valued in many different ways.

For instance, the value of nature can be seen through a utilitarian lens, for example, as providing ecosystem services for humans.

Papers in Regional Science, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 373-397, April 2022., 2022 Abstract The effects of a rural roads programme depend on labour mobility, how the programme is financed, and agglomeration economies. If financed by a rural poll tax and cross‐price effects and agglomeration economies are sufficiently small, the wage will rise, with some return migration.

Regional Science Policy &Practice, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 307-327, April 2022., 2022 Abstract Agglomeration economies are credited for providing the needed catalyst for economic growth and development. This paper uses approximately 14,000 firm‐level data and employs several spatial data analysis approaches to examine evidence of types of spatial sectoral clusters and their footprints in Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality, a major ...
