*Message sent from a system outside of UConn.* Dear colleagues,
We would like to invite you to submit abstracts to our special session "From New Industrial Path Development to Regional Development Outcomes" at the GCEG 2022 (deadline: 11.02.22). Best wishes, Markus, Miguel and Moritz Call for Papers: Global Conference on Economic Geography (Dublin, 7 - 10 June 2022) Special session: From New Industrial Path Development to Regional Development Outcomes Organizers: Moritz Breul (University of Cologne, Germany), Miguel Atienza (Universidad Católica del Norte , Chile), Markus Grillitsch (Lund University, Sweden) The study of how new regional industrial paths develop is a key topic in economic geography. In the last years, a number of important conceptual advancements and constantly growing empirical insights from distinct cases have contributed to refine our understanding of new industrial path development. One major reason for this interest is that new paths are perceived to generate positive regional development outcomes. However, up to now we know surprisingly little about the short- and long-term economic and social effects for regions. Existing studies on new path development tend not to make a link to such regional development outcomes. Although a new regional industrial path has the potential to generate substantial economic gains - both directly (e.g. employment generation, firm entries, etc.) as well as indirectly (e.g. knowledge spillover, production linkages, etc.) - recent research also points to possible 'dark sides' of new industrial path development. In other words, the development of a new industrial path cannot automatically be interpreted as a positive regional economic or social outcome. This session aims to improve our understanding of the conditions under which new industrial path development contributes to what kind of regional economic and social development and for whom. We invite submissions for the session which link the study of new industrial path development to its regional economic and social consequences. Possible topics include but are not limited to: * Conceptual contributions that link path development with a developmental perspective * Methodological approaches that allow to grasp the regional economic and social consequences of new industrial path development * Analyses of inter-path relations (synergies, resource movement effects, reformation processes) * Exclusion in path development processes * Who captures value in new path development * Role of policies for translating new paths into regional economic and social development * Discussions on the 'desirability' of paths for regions * Role of agency in new path development for regional economic and social consequences * Extraregional dynamics of new path development (e.g. role of extraregional actors and resources; competition between regions) If this session is of interest, please submit your abstract (max. 250 words) via the official GCEG submission portal by 11th February 2022 (https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flounge.regionalstudies.org%2FMeetings%2FMeeting%3FID%3D352&data=04%7C01%7C%7C434e121e93634833575c08d9e5603a0d%7C17f1a87e2a254eaab9df9d439034b080%7C0%7C0%7C637793023725654627%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=cCnqnGswAufV6gU570XDj7uKxdu3lj3RkXp1sjr5eWw%3D&reserved=0) and indicate that you are joining the Special Session SS01_01.
