The article explores how economic growth patterns have changed in Nordic and Baltic regions. Instead of looking at countries as a whole, the researchers grouped regions based on factors like capital, labor, innovation, and entrepreneurship. They found that while international disparities have decreased, differences within countries have grown. By identifying different types of regions with similar development patterns, the study sheds light on challenges and trends in regional growth. The findings provide insights into how regions are evolving economically and offer potential policy implications for the future.
