“…This feature of increasing returns, where units are in communication with each other, was first noted by Alfred Marshall, who developed his theory of clusters based on increasing returns where a strong knowledge base is present. Where there is much tacit knowledge, the phenomenon of increasing returns is likely to be even more important (Feldman and Choi, 2015). 3 It has generally been assumed that clustering is successful where units are of the same type or sector, as in Marshall's analysis.…”

The Element highlights the monopolization and exclusion from high-value knowledge in analysing divergent and, recently, partially convergent income trends across 200-odd years of the global capitalist economy. A Southern lens interrogates this history, in the process showing how developing command over knowledge creation sheds light on the middle-income trap. Overall, it shows a new way of looking at global capitalist economic history, highlighting the creation of, command over and exclusion from knowledge. This forces us to analyse the role of the subjective or agential element in making history; a subjective element that, however, always works from within and transforms existing structures and processes. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

“…This means that diversity, rather than uniformity, would be more conducive to the creation of knowledge. Maryann Feldman and Jongmin Choi (2015) mention studies that show that diversity leads to more creativity than uniformity. Video communication certainly supports communication among diverse sets of persons.…”

The article introduces the special section on ''University-industry linkages and academic engagements: Individual behaviours and firms' barriers''. We first revisit the latest developments of the literature and policy interest on university-industry research. We then build upon the extant literature and unpack the concept of academic engagement by further exploring the heterogeneity of UI linkages along a set of dimensions and actors involved. These are: (1) Incentives and behaviours of individual academic entrepreneurs; (2) Firms' barriers to cooperation with public research institutions; (3) Individual behaviours, incentives and organizational bottlenecks in late developing countries. We summarize the individual contributions along these dimensions. There are overlooked individual characteristics that affect the degree of engagement of academics and scholars in cooperating with other organizations, of which gender and the nonacademic background of individuals are most crucial. The notion of academic engagement should be enlarged to aspects that go beyond the commercialization or patenting of innovation, but embrace social and economic impact more at large. From the perspective of the firm, barriers to innovation might exert an effect on the likelihood to cooperate with universities and public research institutes, most especially to cope with lack of finance or access to frontier knowledge. We finally propose a research agenda that addresses the challenges ahead.
