Abstract:

This paper is written as the first chapter of an edited volume on evolutionary economics and
economic geography (Frenken, K., editor, Applied Evolutionary Economics and Economic
Geography, Cheltenham: Edward Elgar, expected publication date February 2007). The paper
reviews empirical applications of evolutionary economics in the field of economic geography. The
review is divided in four parts: the micro-level of the firm, the meso-levels of industry and network,
and the macro-level of spatial system. Some remarks on evolutionary policy in regional
development are added as well as a short discussion of empirical problems that remain.
