The creative economy is less a series of spontaneous eruptions and more a matter of historical plumbing. Büyükyazıcı & @evacoll8.bsky.social show in @regionalstudies.bsky.social that hubs are built on latent skills, not conjured from thin air. #Culture by habit, not miracle. doi.org/10.1080/0034...

Is it really #30DayMapChallenge if there's no geography challenge? Day 14 (OpenStreetMap) comes with a question: given an idiosyncratic city and several key identifying features, how hard is it to guess the city?

To hollow out #cohesion is to erode the #EU’s credibility from within. In my brand new @regionalstudies.bsky.social paper, I argue that #Europe’s competitiveness and very viability depends less on emulating competitors and more on exploiting our latent potential. DOI: doi.org/10.1080/0034...

Competitiveness thrives on cohesion, not concentration. My brand new article in @regionalstudies.bsky.social makes the case for unlocking #Europe’s full potential, wherever it can be found, as #cohesion is the foundation of #competitivenes, not its antithesis. doi.org/10.1080/0034...

#Europe faces not a choice between #efficiency and #equity but the need to reconcile both if it wants to become more competitive. As I argue in my new @regionalstudies.bsky.social paper, a more centralised #EU will thin its own strength by silencing its citizens' voices. doi.org/10.1080/0034...

#EU Cohesion Policy: a bulwark for regional equity, is becoming, according to @fmolica.bsky.social, De Renzis. @bourdinseb.bsky.social in @regionalstudies.bsky.social, a stabiliser for national crises. For them, #Cohesion Policy slips from development to national expedience. doi.org/10.1080/0034...

#EU integration leads to economic #growth, but not evenly. As Petrakos, Sotiriou & Alexiou argue in @regionalstudies.bsky.social, trade in goods hollows out peripheral regions, while services uplift them. The two single market economies: one thrives, the other stalls. doi.org/10.1080/0034...

In a crisis, looking inward is always the initial instinct. But in the #USA, according to Crescenzi & Ganau in @regionalstudies.bsky.social, regions that looked outward—investing abroad—reaped all the rewards. Knowledge, like rain, fertilises best when it travels. doi.org/10.1080/0034...
