Struggling with Entrepreneurial Ecosystems. In this new paper I argue that the common concept of Entrepreneurial Ecosystems is considerably flawed. In particular, entrepreneurship should be regarded as part of the innovation system. ideas.repec.org/p/jrp/jrpwrp…

There was a superb study of honesty around the world in 2019. Leave 17,000 wallets (with contact email) containing various sums of money in 355 cities across 40 countries. Would finders email the owner? The result: rates of honesty vary a LOT.

Auch ein kapitalistisches Geschäftsmodell: Leute, die keine Ahnung von Wirtschaft haben schreiben Bücher über die Wirtschaft, die wiederum von Leuten gelesen werden, die keine Ahnung haben von Wirtschaft.

Very sad news: David J. Storey, a pioneer of entrepreneurship research, passed away last weekend. He made main contributions to understanding regional-level entrepreneurship. I will miss his humor and inspiration. A great man and a good friend is gone. So sad …

In a new paper that was just published in the Journal of Regional Science doi.org/10.1111/jors.12627 Maria Greve, Michael Wyrwich and I find that high vote shares of right-wing populist parties are associated with the decline of a region's relative welfare over the last 100 years.

Moreover, we show that a place‐based collective memory about past prosperity plays a crucial role in shaping present resentment. Finally, we find a stronger activation of collective memory about the past that translates into support of populism today among less educated people.

Ja, das geht in die völlig falsche Richtung! Dabei sagt man der FDP doch ökonomischen Sachverstand nach. Oder war es etwa doch die SPD, die das verbockt hat?
Schade, dass sich die FDP innerhalb der Ampel-Koalition mit dem nächsten ökonomisch höchst zweifelhaften Vorschlag durchgesetzt hat. Richtig wäre gewesen: Preissignale voll wirken lassen, Abfederung durch sozial gestaffelte Einkommenstransfers #Mehrwertsteuer #Gasumlage

Taking the example of East Germany after socialism we find that entrepreneurship and knowledge are key regional resources for mastering the turbulent transition to a market economy.
