Abstract

While evolutionary economy geographers have paid increasing attention to the new industrial path creation in emerging economies, less has been done to compare the path creation between core and peripheral areas at the sub-regional level in the Global South. By taking the digital economy industry in Guangzhou City as a case, this study reveals that given the different initial conditions, innovative entrepreneurship, institutional entrepreneurship and place-based leadership have paid distinct and dynamic roles in different specific contexts and phases. In the well-developed core district (Tianhe) gathered universities and research institutes, innovative entrepreneurs have acted as initial drivers for the development of the digital economy industry at the early path creation phase, while institutional entrepreneurs also provided support to enhance the industrial agglomeration in the following periods. In the late-developing peripheral district (Huangpu) with the lack of innovative resources, institutional entrepreneurship and place-based leadership are crucial to nurturing the new digital industry in the early phase, while conducive industrial assets and innovative entrepreneurs are also needed to cultivate the development of new industries in the future. Therefore, a longitude and multi-actor approach is needed to understand regional industrial path creation in different geographical contexts.

中国广州市新兴数字经济产业的多元驱动路径创造与空间演化
尽管演化经济地理学家越来越关注新兴经济体的新产业路径创造,但对全球南部次区域层面核心区和边缘区路径创造的比较却较少。本研究以广州市的数字经济产业为例,揭示了在不同的初始条件下,创新创业、制度创业和地方领导力在不同的具体背景和阶段发挥了不同的能动作用。在高校和科研院所聚集的发达核心区(天河),创新创业者在早期路径创造阶段成为数字经济产业发展的初始驱动力,而机构创业者也在随后的阶段为提升产业集聚度提供了支持。在创新资源匮乏的后发外围区(黄浦),制度企业家精神和地方领导力是早期培育新兴数字产业的关键,而未来培育新兴产业的发展也需要有利的产业资产和创新企业家。因此,需要采用经度和多因素方法来了解不同地理背景下的区域产业路径创造。

期刊介绍: Applied Geography is a journal devoted to the publication of research which utilizes geographic approaches (human, physical, nature-society and GIScience) to resolve human problems that have a spatial dimension. These problems may be related to the assessment, management and allocation of the world physical and/or human resources. The underlying rationale of the journal is that only through a clear understanding of the relevant societal, physical, and coupled natural-humans systems can we resolve such problems. Papers are invited on any theme involving the application of geographical theory and methodology in the resolution of human problems.
