摘要

我们更新了Bagnasco关于第三意大利的工作及其对意大利经济地理的解释模型，将第四意大利添加到现有的生产系统分类学中。这种新的概念模型为意大利几个城市的初创企业的创业生态系统（EEs）的出现提供了框架。我们描述了它们的特点、定位和制度模式。第四意大利及其认知资本主义生产突出了一些区位集聚外部性。按照经济趋同的逻辑，目前支持经济发展的政策往往加剧了现有的不平衡发展模式。我们呼吁在中观层面实施地方敏感政策，以增强环境能源的再生能力和第四意大利的发展。

The Fourth Italy: a contemporary account of the Italian economic geography

We update Bagnasco’s work on the Third Italy and its interpretative model of Italy’s economic geography adding a Fourth Italy to the existing taxonomy of productive systems. This new conceptual model frames the emergence of Italian Entrepreneurial Ecosystems (EEs) of start-ups in several cities. We describe their characteristics, localization, and institutional patterns. The Fourth Italy and its cognitive capitalist production highlights some situated agglomeration externalities. Current policies supporting EEs have often exacerbated existing patterns of uneven development, following a logic of economic convergence. We call for place-sensitive policy at the meso-level, to enhance the regenerative power of EEs and the development of the Fourth Italy.

期刊介绍： The aims of the Journal of Economic Geography are to redefine and reinvigorate the intersection between economics and geography, and to provide a world-class journal in the field. The journal is steered by a distinguished team of Editors and an Editorial Board, drawn equally from the two disciplines. It publishes original academic research and discussion of the highest scholarly standard in the field of ''economic geography'' broadly defined. Submitted papers are refereed, and are evaluated on the basis of their creativity, quality of scholarship, and contribution to advancing understanding of the geographic nature of economic systems and global economic change.
