“…Financial intermediaries provide funds to entrepreneurs to invent new products. The success of innovation is uncertain, once it got successful, generates funds and motivates further innovation (Chiovenda 2020; Redman 2020; Winecoff and Graff 2020). An economy with a poor economic base suffers from entrepreneurial activities and falls into a no‐economic activity trap.…”

Innovation contributes to economic growth by generating new ideas and improving production processes. At the same time, countries with high economic growth have the freedom to promote innovation. This article aims to examine the causal relationship between innovation and economic growth. Method: An innovation index was constructed using factors of innovation, utilizing principal component analysis. The study used Granger causality to investigate the causal relationship between innovation and economic growth. The sample comprised 34 OECD countries during the period 1961-2018. Results:The results showed that the United States had the highest innovation index, while Luxembourg had the highest economic growth. The study found both unidirectional and bidirectional causal relationships between innovation and economic growth. Conclusions:The study highlights the importance of innovation in driving economic growth and provides insights into the complex and dynamic relationship between these two variables. The findings could be useful for policymakers in designing effective strategies to promote innovation and foster economic growth in their respective countries. KEYWORDS economic growth, Granger causality, innovation, OECD, principal component analysisBritain was the foremost country that experienced the first industrial revolution . Then gradually it spread over Belgium, France, and other countries as well. Technological development is one of the important features of the industrial revolution. 1 It is found that large-sized firms are getting the advantage of lower capital costs than beginners in the industry (Hall 2002). The use of innovative tools is important for the same (Aminjonov 2020;Bianco et al. 2020).

“…Other more "philosophical" explorations of the concept of hospitality have also occurred (Still, 2004). For example, Derrida's query of hyperbolic unconditional hospitality, which assumes a timeless and unchanging aspect of hospitality, proffers the acceptance and embracing of the stranger without condition or question as a moral human imperative (Chiovenda, 2020;Lashley, 2008;Popke, 2007). As highlighted by Lynch et al (2011), such examinations that draw on hospitality as a metaphor for the relationship between hosts and guests have linked: separate but related worlds of meaning, conjuring up certain assumptions, fantasies, threats, and promises in order to make sense of the lived experiences and tangible qualities of human (and non-human) relations.…”

Purpose The purpose of this conceptual paper is to provide a critical reflection on the role of hospitality in society. Specifically, this research criticizes contemporary conceptualizations of hospitality in academic research and practice and suggests a reconceptualized approach for capturing the full potential of hospitality to elicit transformative social change. Design/methodology/approach This paper is based on a critical analysis of hospitality research and practice as reflected in the extant literature. A typological approach to conceptualization is used to develop a framework that views hospitality from three distinct epistemological pathways. Findings Hospitality has largely been conceptualized as an industry- or a business-level context in which economic activity takes place, a pathway referred to as application. This paper offers the hospitality-oriented society of tomorrow (HOST) framework, which urges researchers and practitioners to explore two additional pathways – infusion and transformation – through which hospitality can contribute to society. The nonrecursive relationships between these three pathways and the five pillars of sustainable development espoused by the United Nations 2030 Agenda are proposed to form the basis of future inquiry into the role of hospitality in society. Practical implications The HOST model provides a framework whereby stakeholders within and outside of the traditional contours of the hospitality industry can benefit from a broader conceptualization and implementation of the hospitality phenomenon. Originality/value The paper offers a thought-provoking assessment of the fundamental tenets of hospitality as an academic discipline and social phenomenon. It offers a unique framework that should inform the evolution of hospitality research and practice if the discipline is to bolster its social significance.

“…Many researchers and academics visited City Plaza within the three and a half years it was operating: a fact that led in many cases to publications about the squat (Mitchell and Sparke 2018;Squire 2018;Tsavdaroglou 2018;Agustín and Jørgensen 2019;Raimondi 2019;Chiovenda 2020;Kiddey 2020;Fischer and Jørgensen 2021;Turam 2021). A common way of approaching City Plaza among these papers is a scheme that contrasts solidarity squats with the state-run spaces, like the camps.…”

Multiple spatial practices and scales within and beyond City Plaza, Athens

City Plaza was an abandoned hotel in the center of Athens, squatted in April 2016, in the midst of what was named a “refugee crisis”. In the 39 months that it operated, it became a home to more than 2.500 refugees from more than 10 different countries. Still, what was achieved in City Plaza was beyond that: a community of solidarity and struggle was ‘manufactured’, and City Plaza gradually became a symbol of resistance to the dominant policies of control and repression of migration. This paper focuses on the analysis of the multiple practices and scales of space. The aim is to think around the manifold and interrelated spatial scales, structures, relations and practices that dialectically constructed and were constructed within and beyond City Plaza.
