We focus on three alternative composite measures of social vulnerability to disasters: the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Social Vulnerability Index, the University of South Carolina’s Social Vulnerability Index and the Census Bureau’s Community Resilience Estimate. Empirical evidence under the conventional ‘global’ regression approach supports a cross-sectional correlation between the social vulnerability indices and local economic outcomes during the recovery phase, although the results are equivocal for characterising uneven local economic downturns triggered by the pandemic. Economic outcomes were dominated by other local characteristics, including population density, the share of hospitality employment, government policy measures and unobservable factors. In addition to validating the empirical relevance of the social vulnerability indices in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, a geographically and temporally weighted autoregressive model offers insights into both disparate and clustering patterns across broad regions in the role of inherent sociodemographic attributes for characterising local economic dynamics over time.","PeriodicalId":46370,"journal":{"name":"Regional Studies Regional Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135241955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They were also one of the few sectors in the UK and European Union countries to weather the storm of the 2008 Great Recession. Starting from the curiosity aroused by these premises, and given the paucity of studies on Italian CCIs, we analyse the growth trend of the sector following the economic shock of the Great Recession to ascertain whether this trend also held for Italy. We use data from the Aida-Bureau van Dijk database on more than 181,000 enterprises for the period 2010–18. Information on the number of employees from the cultural and creative enterprises is collected for 18 NACE Rev. 2 sectors, with the aim of disentangling the contribution of each subsector to the growth of the industry. While information is available at the firm level, we use NUTS-3-level information. Using a system generalised method of moments (GMM-SYS) approach, and controlling for some socio-economic characteristics, we examine the determinants of the growth of CCIs in the post-shock period, ultimately contributing to the underexplored debate on the resilience of the sector in Italy and accounting for its macro-regional and peripherality effects.","PeriodicalId":46370,"journal":{"name":"Regional Studies Regional Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135537768","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study provides an inter-temporal framework for understanding the emergence of economic activities, institutional change, path dependence, and spatial economic resilience mediated by continuous and reciprocal interactions between economic and institutional agents (formal and informal) at the micro-level. Co-evolutionary studies of divergent economic activities in the Indian city of Delhi have revealed that radical changes in the institutional environment that did not enable retention of the existing ‘lock-in’ and informal institutional arrangements such as social ties and networks led to institutional drift and path exhaustion for the industrial sector. Meanwhile, in the service sector, the response of economic entrepreneurs to changes in the institutional environment has led to technological lock-in and the emergence of supporting informal institutional arrangements. Formal institutional arrangements have undergone institutional layering that has led to economic path creation for the service sector.","PeriodicalId":46370,"journal":{"name":"Regional Studies Regional Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135735624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
