#Europe’s future won’t be forged in #capitals alone. It lies in Mainz, Skellefteå or Arteixo. Yet, these places are falling through the cracks: too rich for cohesion, too dull for #innovation strategies. Centralisation is not the #EU’s best strategy

Turns out #governance matters more than growth when Russian tanks arrive. In a fascinating new @econgeog-journal.bsky.social of two occupied towns in #Ukraine, Grillitsch, Cabral Cobos & Horvat show that transparency & civic engagement are the key to recovery & #resilience. doi.org/10.1080/0013...

A continent that once bound regions together, tethering Brussels to its citizens, may soon devolve into national silos.
As @profgviesti.bsky.social warns, #cohesion is slow and imperfect, but it is shared & democratic.

Read my commentary in European Urban and Regional Studies on the EU budget proposal. #Brussels sells centralisation as “efficiency.” But it risks silencing the very local voices that make Europe whole, turning European #citizens from shapers of #Europe into mere spectators.

Natural disasters test not just nature’s force but Europe’s governance.
Next Tuesday Eric Neumayer, Maria Dolores Pitarch Garrido and I will ask: why do some regions recover while others decline?

Is the notion of ‘left-behind’ regions is yesterday’s diagnosis? For Bassens, Froud, Johal & Williams in
@dialogueshg.bsky.social, security is no longer the preserve of the middle-class postcode. Foundational precarity is now the daily lot of many even in rich places.

The vanguard of the #UK’s #climate #transition lies not in #Westminster but in places like #Lancaster, #Renfrewshire & North #Kesteven.
Golubchikov, Shahab & Haupt show in Applied Geography what strategic will in the periphery can achieve in terms of #NetZero.

Policy #reform should renew, not just replicate.
My new @cjres.bsky.social paper with Han Wang uncovers that reforms lead to sharp rises in new #firm registrations, with the biggest gains accruing in #cities with weaker starting conditions.

Who’s the GOAT: #Messi or #Ronaldo? It depends: do you value flawless execution or redefining team #productivity?
Cordero & Santin ask in Omega the real question: "who made their team better?" and offer a model that captures the contrast.

La #soledad tiene dos caras: la elegida, que fomenta autonomía y dinamismo; y la sentida, que frena la innovación y desgaja la sociedad. De este frágil equilibrio pende el bienestar.

The #DutchElections offered Europe a rare reprieve. The #Netherlands did not lurch to extremes but revolted against chaos. The #D66 liberals surged but #GeertWilders' PVV remains a formidable force.
The question now: can the centre earn its second chance?

In #Europe some regions are sprinting towards net zero, others remain mired in the footprints of an industrial past. @bourdinseb.bsky.social & Perrot in @cjres.bsky.social show that #decarbonisation demands diversification, institutional grit & a refusal to tread old paths.
