Modele innowacyjnego rozwoju regionów w świetle teorii rozwoju regionalnego

Models of innovative development of regions in the light of regional development theory. This article reviews the literature on the relationship between the region's innovation and its development. Various concepts are discussed in the scheme of the four forces of regional and local competitiveness. The main determinants of the region's innovation and competitiveness can be viewed in a four-force system: domination forces when the region exploits its advantage over others, network power – when the development potential is strengthened by cooperation, external demand and internal resources. In this framework of literature analysis, the article points to both entities and processes that represent the possibilities of the "innovation being" region.
