Economic geography today is a vibrant and growing field of study. New lines of research are emerging that build upon a broadened concept of the economic, upon analysis of economic development and global economic change, and upon renewed interest in issues of policy, institutions and governance. Longstanding research interests in industrial and technological change are being vigorously pursued in the context of new theories of learning and innovation. Economic geography today is methodologically diverse, engaged with issues of compelling social concern, and alive with interesting and provocative scholarship.
