Regional Entrepreneurial Transformation: A Complex Systems Perspective
基于区域经济作为自组织复杂系统的概念,提出了区域创业转型的描述性过程模型,强调子系统层面共享图式的变化如何引发正反馈循环,推动区域创业转型。
In this paper, I develop a descriptive process model of regional entrepreneurial transformation based on a conceptualization of regional economies as self-organizing complex systems that consist of interdependent subsystems as represented by heterogeneous actor groups. It is proposed that a change in a region's entrepreneurial profile requires shifts in collectively shared subsystem-level schemata that cause actors to behave in ways that prevent emergent entrepreneurship. The model highlights four factors that contribute to the initiation of a positive feedback loop through which simultaneous schemata changes and consequently a regional entrepreneurial shift occur. Theoretical and policy implications are discussed.
