Regional policy mixes for enterprise and innovation: A fuzzy-set clustering approach
本文识别了从最小化到更主动或创业型的区域政策组合,并利用2007-2013年意大利所有企业与创新项目的原始数据库,通过模糊集聚类技术验证了这些组合在意大利区域的扩散情况。
The paper identifies different regional policy mixes, ranging from the more minimal to the more proactive or entrepreneurial and verifies their diffusion in the Italian regional enterprise and innovation policies. The empirical analysis is based on an original database containing every enterprise and innovation programme that has been implemented in Italy from 2007 to 2013, and is carried out by means of fuzzy-set clustering techniques. The results show the existence of remarkable heterogeneity, partly reflecting the well-known North-South divide, with some regions adopting minimal policy mixes and other regions adopting different types of proactive mixes.
