Sinopsis

This book presents the fmdings of a comparative study of three European metropolitan regions: Vienna, Barcelona and Stockholm. The heart of the work consists of empirical studies carefully designed and developed in order to identify the main actors and mechanisms supporting technological innovation in each of the metropolitan regions. The authors have also highlighted the similarities and differences across regions and countries, investigating how these came to be, and discussing the possible implications. The introductory as well as the concluding Chapter was written by Manfred M. Fischer who, assisted by Attila Varga, was also responsible for Chapter 2 on the Metropolitan Region of Vienna. Javier Revilla Diez contributed Chapter 3 on the Barcelona Metropolitan Region. Folke Snickars has provided Chapter 4 which examines the Metropolitan Region of Stockholm and. All authors have reviewed and commented on the whole contents so that the volume represents a collective endeavour which has been rendered as homogeneous as possible.

Reseña del editor

This book makes an attempt to provide evidence of the innovation processes across metropolitan regions studies based on the use of a common more rigid methodology. The comparison is based on three metropolitan regions situated in the South Western, South Eastern and Northern periphery of the European Union: the metropolitan regions of Barcelona, Vienna and Stockholm. These regions are sufficiently different in terms of history, culture and economy. The book offers a compact review of current conceptual and theoretical developments and valuable insights deriving from a cross-national interregional comparative empirical study. It provides specific answers about variations of metropolitan innovation systems in their innovation capacity and performance within the European Union. Broad research coverage makes it invaluable reading for researchers, profefessionals and graduate students in the subject areas.
