Constructing Regional Advantage: Platform Policies Based on Related Variety and Differentiated Knowledge Bases

Asheim B. T., Boschma R. and Cooke P. Constructing regional advantage: platform policies based on related variety and differentiated knowledge bases, Regional Studies. This paper presents a regional innovation policy model based on the idea of constructing regional advantage. This policy model brings together concepts like related variety, knowledge bases and policy platforms. Related variety attaches importance to knowledge spillovers across complementary sectors. The paper categorizes knowledge into ‘analytical’ (science based), ‘synthetic’ (engineering based) and ‘symbolic’ (arts based) in nature, with different requirements of ‘virtual’ and real proximity mixes. The implications of this are traced for evolving ‘platform policies’ that facilitate economic development within and between regions in action lines appropriate to incorporate the basic principles behind related variety and differentiated knowledge bases. Asheim B. T., Boschma R. and Cooke P. 构建区域优势:基于相关多样性以及不同知识基础的平台政策, 区域研究。 本文展示了基于构建区域优势这一理念的区域创新政策模型。 本政策模型整合了相关多样性、知识基础以及政策平台等概念。相对多样性概念强调了相互补充的部门间知识外溢存在的重要性。本文按知识的性质将其分类为:分析性(以科学为基础)、先验性(以工程为基础)以及象征性(以艺术为基础),不同类别的知识对于“真实”有着不同的要求。文章考察了上述分类对于“平台政策”演进的影响,平台政策有助于整合相关多样性和不同知识基础背后的基本原则,以此辅助区域内外协同发展。 相关多样性 不同知识基础 区域创新政策 区域(衍 生)分支 Asheim B. T., Boschma R. et Cooke P. L'établissement de l'avantage régional: une plate-forme économique fondée sur la variété liée et des bases de connaissance différenciée, Regional Studies. Cet article cherche à présenter un modèle de la politique en faveur de l'innovation régionale fondée sur la notion de l'établissement de l'avantage régional. Cette politique réunit des notions telles la variété liée, les bases de connaissance, et des plates-formes économiques. La variété attache de l'importance aux retombées de connaissance à travers des secteurs complémentaires. L'article classe la connaissance, par nature, sous les rubriques ‘analytique’ (fondée sur la science), ‘synthétique’ (fondée sur l'ingénierie) et ‘symbolique’ (fondée sur les arts), y compris des besoins différents pour les mélanges de proximités ‘virtuelle’ et réelle. On en esquisse les implications quant aux ‘plates-formes économiques'qui facilitent le développement économique sur les plans intra et interrégionaux à partir des actions appropriées aux principes qui étayent la variété liée et les bases de connaissance différenciée.

Aufbau eines regionalen Vorteils: Plattform-Politiken auf der Grundlage von verwandter Varietät und differenzierten Wissensbasen, Regional Studies. In diesem Beitrag wird ein Modell für regionale Innovationspolitik auf der Grundlage der Idee des Aufbaus eines regionalen Vorteils vorgestellt. In diesem politischen Modell werden unter anderem Konzepte von verwandter Varietät, Wissensbasen und politischen Plattformen miteinander kombiniert. Bei der verwandten Varietät wird der Wissensübertragung zwischen komplementären Sektoren Bedeutung beigemessen. In diesem Beitrag teilen wir Wissen je nach seiner Beschaffenheit in die Kategorien ‘analytisch' (wissenschaftsbasiert), ‘snythetisch' (technikbasiert) und ‘symbolisch' (kunstbasiert) ein, wobei an Mischungen von ‘virtueller' und echter Nähe unterschiedliche Anforderungen gestellt werden. Wir untersuchen die Auswirkungen auf die Entstehung von ‘Plattform-Politiken’, die eine Wirtschaftsentwicklung innerhalb und zwischen den Regionen begünstigen, durch eine Abbildung als Aktionslinien, mit denen die Grundprinzipien der verwandten Varietät und der differenzierten Wissensbasen angemessen berücksichtigt werden.

La construcción de una ventaja regional: políticas de plataforma basadas en la variedad relacionada y las bases de conocimiento diferenciado, Regional Studies. En este artículo presentamos un modelo de política de innovación regional basado en la idea de crear una ventaja regional. En este modelo político se combinan conceptos tales como la variedad relacionada, las bases de conocimiento y las plataformas políticas. La variedad relacionada resalta la importancia de los desbordamientos de conocimiento en los sectores complementarios. En este artículo describimos el conocimiento según su naturaleza en las categorías de modelo ‘analítico’ (basado en la ciencia), ‘sintético’ (basado en la ingeniería) y ‘simbólico’ (basado en las artes), con combinaciones de proximidad ‘virtuales’ y reales según diferentes requisitos. Exploramos las repercusiones en la creación de ‘políticas de plataforma’ que facilitan el desarrollo económico dentro de las regiones y entre ellas, mediante líneas de acción apropiadas con la finalidad de incorporar los principios básicos de la variedad relacionada y las bases de conocimiento diferenciado.
