Abstract

This chapter explores disparities in urban innovation, in the context of the history of city systems and advanced urban economies. The overall innovative index of metropolitan economies is estimated by first generating its score on each of the latent dimensions and then adding up those performance scores across all of the dimensions. The results produced a clear set of innovation centers, spread evenly across the United States. Not only do these findings square with contemporary theory on agglomeration economies, as explained by Mulligan et al. (Ann Reg Sci 48:405–431, 2012), they line up nicely with older, less behaviorally motivated theories of central place hierarchies. The paper concludes with a discussion of the main challenges facing regional science in the research areas of innovation and urban growth.

In the natural sciences, a good analogy is the relationship between Newton’s laws of motion, which, to this day work well for many practical applications, but—their enduring power and utility—were shown to be incomplete and wholly supplanted by Einstein’s theory of general relativity.

It is worth noting that patent counts can be problematic for cross-country comparisons for a number of reasons. For example Japan applied a higher standard for judging innovation with the result that it is more stringent in awarding patents than a number of other countries, including the United States. See de Rassenfosse et al. (2016).
