An inquiry on the regional dimension of the knowledge economy: aims and novelties of the book
No full textThe previous chapters have provided a description of the diffusion of the knowledge-based economy in Europe according to three different approaches: an industrial approach (Chapter 2), a functional approach (Chapter 3) and a relational approach (Chapter 4). As discussed in Chapter 1, in fact, the knowledge-based economy does not have a single definition and can assume different forms that sometimes complement and sometimes substitute each other. In particular, the knowledge-based economy has been measured through either the presence of high-tech manufacturing and service sectors, or through the presence of scientific activities (human capital and research activities), or through the capacity of a region to cooperate — intentionally or unintentionally — with other regions. Accordingly, three typologies of knowledge-based regions have been empirically identified: technologically-advanced regions, scientific regions, and knowledge networking regions

<p>The Story Map Building and Visualization Tool (SMBVT) is semi-automatic tool to construct and visualise narratives, intended as semantic networks of events related to each other through semantic relations, in form of story maps and timeline. The tool was developed as an extension of a previously developed tool called Narrative Building and Visualisation Tool (NBVT - <a href="http://dlnarratives.eu/tool/index.html">http://dlnarratives.eu/tool/index.html</a>). SMBVT, like NBVT does, obeys an <a href="https://dlnarratives.eu/ontology.html">ontology for narratives</a> we developed.</p>

Urbanization and Subjective Well-Being
No full textThis chapter proposes a review of the most recent works developed by the authors on the association between urbanization and subjective well-being. While most previous studies point out a strong dichotomy between urban and rural areas, the latter being characterized by higher levels of well-being than the former, the research program presented here aims at overcoming this perspective. Specifically, it focuses on three elements that are assumed to influence the role of urbanization on subjective well-being: the nature of externalities generated by cities of different kinds, the spatial accessibility to these externalities and the temporal dimension. Empirical results show that all these factors are important determinants of individuals’ well-being, whose association with urbanization is more complex than generally assumed
Introduction: the interplay among inequalities, wellbeing and space
No full textInequalities have been a long-standing issue and a terrain of theoretical and
empirical discussions and debates in many disciplines (e.g. economics, social
sciences, political sciences, geography and even philosophy), each proposing
alternative perspectives, notions and interpretations. Yet, inequalities are still too often conceptualised with predefined and
bounded spatial imaginaries, which often hinder their interrelated, interdependent
and multiscalar nature (Brenner and Schmid, 2015; Lang et al.,
2015). What is more and more clear, however, is that a multiscalar, multidimensional,
multitemporal and multidisciplinary perspective is especially relevant. to understand the genesis and impacts of the newly emerging spatial inequalities
on the wellbeing of individual and places. This edited book tackles this challenge by enabling the convergence into
a single volume of different disciplinary perspectives, ranging from regional
economics to urban studies, from economic and urban geography to planning.
The book moves from the idea that this multidisciplinary perspective, at first
sight, may look quite consolidated and agreed among scholars: several recent
books in fact try to contribute to developing a thoroughly integrated approach
to define, explore and even deal with the challenges related to spatial inequalities
and wellbeing. Nevertheless, our premise is the perception that there is an
urgent need, now more than ever, of opening and collecting a critical discussion
between seminal contributions that too often remain embedded and siloed
in their study fields (McCall, 2017; Segal, 2022)

Porter in waters of Corral, Valdivia Province (Chile), with a very short diagnosis and one photo. The species was later reported in other localities along the coast (e.g. Concepcion area), as well as in the oceanic islands (e.g. Juan Fernandez, Salas y Gomez) (see above). However, until now, no complete description of the species existed, avoiding a comparison among the specimens from different localities as well as with other species.</p> <p> Furthermore, when examining specimens from different Chilean localities, e.g. Corral (type specimens) and Valparaiso (coll. Porter, 1899, deposited in the MNHN of Paris) we found that they belong to two different species (<i>P. lenzi</i> and <i>P. porteri</i>). Unfortunately, we failed to examine specimens from Chilean oceanic islands, so the identity of the specimens of <i>Phylladiorhynchus</i> reported from these islands remains to be confirmed. <i>Phylladiorhynchus lenzi</i> has been considered a synonym of <i>P. pusillus</i> (Henderson, 1885) (Baba <i>et al</i>. 2008; Schnabel & Ahyong 2019).</p> <p> <i>Phylladiorhynchus lenzi</i> belongs to the group of species having usually 4 spines on the epigastric ridge, the anterior metagastric ridge scale-like, a very small hepatic spine, the anterior margin of the thoracic sternite 3 convex and one spine on the flexor margin of the Mxp3 merus. This group contains four species: <i>P. pusillus</i> from New Zealand and Australia, <i>P. lenzi</i>, from Chile, <i>P. porteri</i>, from Chile, and <i>P. poeas</i> from French Polynesia. Differences between <i>P lenzi</i> and <i>P. porteri</i> are given under the Remarks of the latter species. <i>Phylladiorhynchus lenzi</i> can be distinguished from <i>P. pusillus</i> and <i>P. poeas</i> by subtle but constant differences:</p> <p> - The proximal lateral spine of the antennular article is always distinct in <i>P. pusillus</i>, whereas this spine is very small to indistinct in <i>P. lenzi</i> and <i>P. poeas</i>.</p> <p> - The antennal article 3 is armed with a small distomesial spine in <i>P. pusillus</i>, whereas this article has welldeveloped distomesial and distolateral spines in <i>P. lenzi</i> and <i>P. poeas</i>.</p>Published as part of <i>Rodríguez-Flores, Paula C., Macpherson, Enrique & Machordom, Annie, 2021, Revision of the squat lobsters of the genus Phylladiorhynchus Baba, 1969 (Crustacea, Decapoda, Galatheidae) with the description of 41 new species, pp. 1-159 in Zootaxa 5008 (1)</i> on pages 77-79, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5008.1.1, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/5157455">http://zenodo.org/record/5157455</a>
