摘要

本文讨论了机构在塑造区域经济未来中的作用。关于代理的学术研究偏离了进化经济地理学的早期重点，后者强调了预先存在的结构条件的作用。这篇论文挑战了这样一种观念，即代理只存在于有意的行为中，并且仅限于一个区域内的关键行动者。它质疑对企业家领袖、地方领导人和政府影响的独家关注，并以受澳大利亚乘用车行业关闭影响的工人为例，确定了多个决策者积累的微观决策中的代理作用。在此过程中，它强调了集体愿景和有意义的执行在区域成功转型中的双重作用。

Agency and the structural determinants of regional growth: towards a retheorisation

This paper addresses debates on the role of agency in shaping the economic future of regions. Scholarship on agency departs from the earlier focus of evolutionary economic geography, which highlighted the role of pre-existing structural conditions. This paper challenges the notion that agency is only found in intentional action and is limited to key actors within a region. It questions exclusive focus on the impact of entrepreneurial leaders, place leaders and government, and identifies agency in the accumulated micro-decisions of multiple decision-makers, using the example of workers affected by the closure of Australia’s passenger vehicle industry. In so doing, it underscores the twin roles of collective vision and meaningful implementation in the successful transformation of regions.

期刊介绍： Regional Studies is a leading international journal covering the development of theories and concepts, empirical analysis and policy debate in the field of regional studies. The journal publishes original research spanning the economic, social, political and environmental dimensions of urban and regional (subnational) change. The distinctive purpose of Regional Studies is to connect insights across intellectual disciplines in a systematic and grounded way to understand how and why regions and cities evolve. It publishes research that distils how economic and political processes and outcomes are contingent upon regional and local circumstances. The journal is a pluralist forum, which showcases diverse perspectives and analytical techniques. Essential criteria for papers to be accepted for Regional Studies are that they make a substantive contribution to scholarly debates, are sub-national in focus, conceptually well-informed, empirically grounded and methodologically sound. Submissions are also expected to engage with wider debates that advance the field of regional studies and are of interest to readers of the journal.
