- W1594572760 abstract "The importance of localised capabilities is argued to increase when most inputs are available world-wide because of globalisation and abolition of barriers to trade. As a conse quence of this process of ubiquitification, industry and region specific knowledge becomes more important. In addition to experience in similar activities, knowledge flows and technological spillovers require interaction and regular face-to- face contacts, and, thus, spatial proximity. Hence, specialisation is considered to enhance competitiveness not only at firm level but also at the regional level. Specialisation has been put forward as a new form of regional competitive strategy in numerous theoretical approaches in regional development. However, as a competitive strategy regional specialisation poses new challenges especially for small and peripheral regions. According to recent theories, instead of traditional issues such as long distances from centres and markets, the major problem facing peripheral and sparsely populated regions can be seen as whether these regions can offer favourable conditions for successful industries. This question is also of major concern in regional policy. Finland and the other Nordic countries are sparsely populated and characterised by scattered settlement structures. This paper focuses on industrial specialisation from the 1970s to the 1990s in the case of Finnish regions. The main purpose is to determine 1) whether specialisation can be considered a relevant strategy in the case of Finnish regions, and, 2) how these regions have coped with the need for industrial specialisation. These issues are investi gated on the basis of detailed data on manufacturing industries covering sectoral and regional employment figures in Finnish labour market districts. Most of these regions are small, rural municipalities characterised by low population densities and small centres. In a considerable number of regions industrial employment consists of less than 100 employees. The develop - ment is analysed by dividing regions into different size and type categories. The empirical observa tions of the present study support the view that the specialisation dynamics of growing and stagnating regions has to be analysed separately." @default.
