Regional Science Policy &Practice, Volume 15, Issue 7, Page 1532-1552, September 2023., 2023 Abstract Entrepreneurial and growth‐oriented urban development models see left‐behind areas as opportunities in need of redevelopment and upgrading, which can be subjected to speculation.

Urban crisis vs. urban success in the era of 4.0 technologies: Baumol's model revisited
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 102, Issue 3, Page 589-612, June 2023., 2023 Abstract The advent of 4.0 technologies allows a footloose location for firms and people, apparently suggesting a “flat world.” In this perspective, cities lose their attractiveness and undergo an urban decline.

Papers in Regional Science, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 979-999, August 2022., 2022 Abstract In addition to their often‐cited role as global service hubs, world cities are also global innovation hubs with their connectivity in knowledge networks crucial for the innovation clusters they harbour. While both aspects of world cities' global connectivity may allow their urban economies to grow, we argue that specialization in one of these ...
