It’s all a question of business: investment identities,networks and decision-making in the cleantech economy
  • It’s all a question of business: investment identities,networks and decision-making in the cleantech economy
  • Clean technology ; England ; Green economy ; Investment ; London ; Network ; Technology ; United Kingdom ; Urban economy ; Venture capital
  • The central aim of this article is to deepen understandings of the operation of cleantech investment by examining the decision-making processes of cleantech actors, how these are influenced by (and influence) cleantech investment networks
  • cleantech networks form and operate to create and disseminate cleantech discourses and to generate the mutual trust and information sharing needed to secure cleantech investments.

Understanding transit ridership demand for the multidestination, multimodal transit network in Atlanta, Georgia : lessons for increasing rail transit choice ridership while maintaining transit dependent bus ridership
  • Understanding transit ridership demand for the multidestination, multimodal transit network in Atlanta, Georgia : lessons for increasing rail transit choice ridership while maintaining transit dependent bus ridership
  • Atlanta ; Form of transport ; Georgia (USA) ; Journey to work ; Large city ; Metropolitan area ; Mode choice ; Origin-destination ; Passengers ; Transport network ; United States of America ; Urban transport
  • This study analyses the structure of transit demand in Atlanta’s transit system to understand why different elements of the network appeal to bus and rail riders. The results show that self-identified bus riders come from poorer areas having fewer

When regions collide: in what sense a new ‘regional problem’?
  • Illustrated through the experience of Germany, this paper demonstrates that interaction between different networked regional spaces (eg, city-regions and cross-border regions) is resulting in new networked regional imaginaries (eg, cross-border
  • metropolitan regions). Its overall aim is to show that the production of entirely new networked spaces can assist in overcoming the contradictions present in one configuration of regions, but this only serves to create a new ‘regional problem’ requiring ever

Incremental infrastructures : material improvisation and social collaboration across post-colonial Accra
  • This article examines incremental infrastructures through material improvisation and social collaboration across post-colonial Accra. This refers to ad hoc actions on the part of slum dwellers to connect to energy networks or carve out informal

Does religious affiliation affect migration?
  • This article tests whether social networks at the origin, measured by religious affiliation, affect out-migration in Lota, Chile. The basic idea is that a social capital loss is attached to the decision to out-migrate, and said loss increases
  • migration costs because benefits received from the local network at the origin disappear. To test this hypothesis, it estimates conditional and mixed logit models for the decision to out-migrate. The results support the hypothesis: members from religious

Modeling social ties and household mobility
  • . Based on 1,000 simulation experiments, a regression of homeowner migration error (the difference between simulated and observed migration) relative to the parameter settings revealed components of social network choice such as income, race
