Povzetek

Globalizacija zahteva svoje žrtve, kar po mnenju avtorjev pomeni negotovo prihodnost majhnih in srednje velikih mest v Evropi.Vloga centrov se nenehno povečuje, večina raziskovalcev raje analizira konkurenčnost in inovativnost metropolitanskih območij. V tej študiji nameravamo opredeliti majhna in srednje velika mesta v regiji Srednje in Vzhodne Evrope ter raziskati njihovo možno pot razvoja. Avtorji so prepričani, da je eden od načinov preživetja teh mest krepitev inovacijskih sposobnosti, kar pomeni povečanje inovacijske uspešnosti gospodarskih subjektov in nove oblike interakcij med drugimi institucijami za reševanje družbenih problemov. Teoretično izhodišče sta interpretacija in predstavitev mikropolitanskih regij (brez velikih mest), pa tudi razumevanje koncepta tehnoloških in družbenih inovacij. Kot rezultat raziskave bo predstavljeno merjenje, povezano z inovacijami, v nekaterih naseljih. Te izkušnje lahko pomagajo majhnim in srednje velikim mestom, da lahko sledijo globalni konkurenci in prekinejo migracije ter erozijo intelektualnega potenciala.
