This paper tests for excessive employment agglomeration among twenty southern California manufacturing industry clusters using two methods claiming to control for the natural and planned geography constraining industrial location generally. It finds
broad consistency across the alternative tests; although fewer industry clusters test statistically significant for agglomeration or dispersion. Similarly, the observed values for the former statistic test significant over a subset of the spatial scales

The article investigates the extent to which these private industrial centers have effectively reduced the domination of Jakarta in shaping the entire metropolitan structure. The analysis indicates that major suburban industrial centers have
captured most of the manufacturing employment that has dispersed from Jakarta. The industrial centers have now increasingly specialized and diversified. It is likely that a polycentric metropolitan structure will emerge in the future.

This paper tests the link between the creative industries and wage and employment growth in a panel of travel-to-work areas from 2003 to 2008. The results suggest the creative industries drive both wage and employment growth in other sectors
. However, when only urban areas are considered the creative industries drive wage growth but do not increase employment. These findings are consistent with the idea that the creative industries help other sectors grow, but may squeeze out declining

This study explores the determinants of self-employment growth across US regions and by gender, age group and industry. It finds that self-employment growth was faster for women than for men; that growth in the 45–64-year age group outpaced growth

industry. Furthermore, while there is evidence that particular clusters are associated with significantly altered poverty rates, not all of these associations are beneficial.

This paper examines the agency of nonunionized workers employed in the surfboard industry across thirty-five workshops and three hubs of production (O’ahu, Hawai’i, southern California, and east coast Australia) and reveals how cultural values
and logics powerfully shape labor relations in the surfboard industry. It shows that over the last decade, however, standardization, international competition, and managerial ambitions to upscale for export have instigated pervasive shifts to automated

This paper examines creativity, cities, and innovation in the United Kingdom. The results stress that creative industries firms are more likely to introduce original product innovations, but not those learnt from elsewhere. Creative occupations
, however, appear a more robust general driver of innovation. We find no support for the hypothesis that urban creative industries firms are particularly innovative. However, creative occupations are used in cities to introduce product innovations learnt

This paper examines the micro- and macro-impacts of regional development policies in Brazil. To do so, it measures the impact of the Northeast regional fund (FNE) industrial loans on employment and labour productivity growth at the micro- (firm
) level and on gross domestic product (GDP) per capita growth at macro- (municipalities, micro-regions and spatial clusters) levels. The results results show a positive and statistically significant impact of the FNE industrial loans on job creation
