    Innovation research has become an important topic in regional science analysis. Yet the modelling base of much innovation research is still feeble. This paper aims to map out the research potential of recent approaches in quantitative complexity analysis, in particular Neural Networks (NNs) analysis, from the perspective of their operational applicability in the space-economy. The urban context of European innovation processes is used as an empirical background. The paper addresses also the issue of space-time transferability of the tools employed.The first part of the paper is devoted to a concise conceptual overview and illustration of the innovation process, which is conceived of as a self-organising system. The second part presents empirical results on innovation processes in Europe. In this framework a comparative analysis is conducted between NN models and a conventional tool often used in spatial economics studies, viz. (non)linear regression analysis. The sensitivity of the various results, - by using 'transferability' experiments - is also examined. Theempirical experiments underline the advantages and limitations of these approaches from a methodological as well as an empirical viewpoint. They appear to offer a plausible range of values of empirical outcomes, which may highlight an acceptable degree of variation in spatial innovation processes.

    Promoting investments in energy saving technologies is an important means forachieving environmental goals. Unfortunately, the empirical evidence on successconditions of policies isscarce. Based on a survey among Dutch firms, this paper sets out to identify thefactors that determine the investment behaviour of firms, their attitude towardsvarious types of energy policy,and their responsiveness to changes in environmental policy in the Netherlands.On the basis of discrete choice models, this paper aims to investigate empiricallywhether (and how) these strategic features vary over firm characteristics and over sectors.

    This paper offers an overview of assessment methods for physicalplanning, with a particular focus on the agricultural sector. Anattempt is made to link multi-criteria analysis to meta-analysis byapplying rough set theory as a framework for comparative study. Anempirical application on the explanation of productivity differencesin OECD countries is used to ilustrate the potential of thisapproach.

    This paper proposes an integrated evaluation methodology which serves to alleviate the limitations of a singleevaluation approach by combining different assessment and policy analysis methods. It is demonstrated that, in a multi-criteria context, a so-called combinatorial framework can cope with the serious limitations of the above mentionedapproach, in particular the potential redundancy in the information table and the subjectivity of the 'expert' in theweight choice procedure. We use rough set analysis as a tool for classifying and identifying the most critical decisionattributes, while next a multi-criteria analysis is deployed in combination with other methods. We apply this newcombinatorial assessment methodology to an illustrative case study on transportation planning, where the coreassessment methodology is formed by a combined qualitative-quantitative regime analysis, extended withcomplementary approaches. The results of the analysis indicate that the combinatorial method indeed has theflexibility and capacity to assess complex multidimensional policy issues.

    The potential interactions among fiscal policies, investments and economicgrowth are complex and manifold.In this paper, we will perform a systematic comparative analysis of the variouseconomic insights that arecurrently available on these complex relationships, both theoretically (by aselective literature review) andempirically (by investigating available data from various countries). Despitethe wide variety of potentialtheoretical relationships between government expenditures, taxation and growth,most empirical analyses arerestricted to simple linear regressions of growth on some measure of governmentexpenditures. Based onempirical experiments, we will indicate directions for future empirical researchthat may enrich our knowledgeon the complex relationship between fiscal policies and economic growth, notonly nationally but also regionally.

    This paper focuses on the network character of a multimodal transportsystem in which interconnectivity is the key determinant of itsperformance, relative to unimodal transport opportunities. Theemphasis is on the viability of chain mobility in public transport byanalyzing the satisfaction of travellers on a transferpoint withrespect to its accessibility, the parking facilities offered and theschedule coordination in the central node. The statistical analysis,based on individual, subjective responses on the performance of twoDutch railway stations, enables to identify the degree ofsatisfaction of various groups of travellers in regard to theperformance of a multimodal network. This finding may prove to beuseful for network operators who aim at a complementarity orcooperation with unimodal transport systems.

    The rapidly rising inflow of foreign migrants confronts policy-makers with many socio-economic problems. The negative externalities of uncontrolled immigration are well known and often hard to cope with. In recent years we have seen many policy initiatives based on self-reliance principles for ethnic groups. Against this background ethnic entrepreneurship has become a popular strategy, as it stimulates and encourages migrants to look after themselves with a limited support of the government. Such a policy becomes an increasingly important endeavour in many large cities. Besides the conventional educational support and training programmes, such a strategy would need to implementpolicy strategies aiming at self-employment. An emphasis on ethnic entrepreneurship seeks to exploit the economic potential and opportunities instead of focusing on the problems minorities encounter when entering the labour market. In ethnic entrepreneurship, this potential can be utilised in a creative way, especially if well-organised projects and initiatives are set up.In this paper, various assistance programmes and urban policies in several European cities aiming at favouring ethnic entrepreneurship will be systematically compared with the aim to draw lessons for effective labour market policies. The methodological approach will employ a systematic information base concerning self-employment strategies in the cities under investigation. A newly developed comparative statistical method for categorical information, viz. rough set analysis, will be used in order to identify critical success factors. The results suggest that utilisation of socialnetworks is most helpful to enhance self-employment among ethnic minorities. Finally, the paper offers some lessons for the establishment of socio-cultural and ethnic networks, for strategies for improving training and education and for improvement of access to facilities and financial resources.
