The role of state agency in path development: a longitudinal study of two Norwegian manufacturing regions
研究了挪威国家通过不同角色（监管者、采购者、所有者、促进者）如何影响两个国防相关高科技制造区域的路径发展，特别是通过调整本地资产并使其与外部市场对接。
The role of the state remains underdeveloped in the regional path development literature. This paper analyses how the Norwegian state via different roles (regulator, purchaser, owner, facilitator) directly and indirectly has enabled and influenced path development in two defence-related high-tech manufacturing regions in Norway since the end of the Second World War, notably by contributing to the modification of localised assets and the strategic coupling of those assets to extra-regional defence-related and civilian markets.
