Full-text available
Being oblivious to the motivational nuances behind human behavior could lead one to overlook the distinction that a good action does not always indicate a good character. Conversely, this book argues that such nuances are paramount. Focusing on character over consequences is vital because motivational differences have fundamental implications for t...

Evolutionary economics has been useful to explain the nature of the processes of innovation, as well as providing useful heuristics for applied research. However, quantitative tests are rare and in general fail to capture the observed dynamics of firms in real markets. A main problem is how to estimate the fitnesses of companies. We present a quant...

Despite the growing calls to integrate realistic human behavior in sustainability science models, the representative rational agent prevails. This is especially problematic for climate change adaptation that relies on actions at various scales: from governments to individuals. Empirical evidence on individual adaptation to climate-induced hazards r...

This paper aims to advance an interpretation of social problems theory and analysis from the perspective of Virginia political economy. To the extent that social problems provide a rationale for collective action and public policymaking, social problems are considered a suitable candidate for appraisal using Virginia political economy’s conceptual...

Despite most societies having recognized the vital role of entrepreneurship in driving economic progress, there is still a lack of understanding of the components of innovation, entrepreneurship, and growth and the relationship between microeconomic foundations of development and macroeconomic outcomes. Moreover, the impact of new venture competiti...

Looking for a unified agenda What is the agenda and scope of evolutionary economic geography (EEG)? In particular, what is the role that the disciplines of geography and economics can, or should, play in such an—arguably common—program? While efforts to answer these questions have been made in EEG (Boschma and Martin, 2007, 2010; Kogler, 2017), the...

A central challenge in evolutionary economics stems from the fact that fitness values are not static quantities but typically fluctuate over time. Based on the longstanding tradition of rigorous mathematical description of evolution in population genetics, we propose a quantitative implementation of fluctuating selection to explain the dynamics of...

Different strands of literature have provided important insights into the economic effects of high-skilled migration. Evolutionary economic approaches have provided robust evidence and theories to explain how innovation unfolds in regions. However, with few exceptions they have been silent with regard to the role of migration in this process. This...

Introduction The National innovation systems (NIS) came into the focus of scientific research at the end of the 20th century. At that time, within the framework of evolutionary economics, several scientific schools were formed, the efforts of which created the theoretical prerequisites for studying the NIS. The main element of the novelty in creati...

We explore the limitations of the adaptationist view of evolution and propose an alternative. While gradual adaptation can explain some biological and economic diversity, it cannot account for radical innovation (especially during the past 10,000 years). We argue that ubiquitously available but dormant “functional excess” provides the raw material...

The replicator dynamics (RD) model provides important insights in the evolution of markets but lacks empirical support.

Historians of economic thought commonly emphasize three aspects of Carl Menger’s work: his quarrel with the German Historical School, the contrast between his theoretical outlook and that of his co-marginalists, Léon Walras and William Stanley Jevons, and his role in pioneering an evolutionary economics.
