“…La réalité dans laquelle les structures et les conditions préalables stimulent ou entravent le développement de nouvelles industries dans les régions périphériques étant complexe (Nilsen et al, 2022), les chercheurs doivent multiplier les études dans ce domaine afin de cerner la dynamique des différents acteurs et de mieux comprendre les facteurs facilitant leur émergence et leur développement.…”

“…Il serait intéressant de diversifier les contextes afin de valider les résultats de la recherche et de mieux comprendre en quoi ceux-ci seraient propres au cas de la région étudiée ou bien s'ils peuvent être observés ailleurs; pour l'instant, nos résultats corroborent, en grande partie, les résultats déjà véhiculés dans la littérature, en offrant des apports originaux en ce qui concerne le contexte périphérique.

RésuméCet article porte sur le développement d'une nouvelle industrie, à savoir l'industrie brassicole dans la région périphérique de l'Est‐du‐Québec. Son objectif consiste à comprendre et décrire les principales activités des microbrasseries pour déceler leur apport au développement des régions de l'Est‐du‐Québec, à savoir le Bas‐Saint‐Laurent et Gaspésie–Îles‐de‐la‐Madeleine. Les résultats de notre analyse permettent d'apporter des enseignements nouveaux sur la contribution de cette industrie au développement de ces deux régions.

“…Interrelated with metropolitanization, the peripheralization of places involves their weakening and decoupling from physical and knowledge networks that reduces the access and participation opportunities for people in certain places, generating and amplifying geographical inequalities (Lang et al, 2015). Peripheries are hence (re-)produced through their wider relations and the agency of actors (Nilsen et al, 2022).…”

‘Left behind places’: a geographical etymology

Left behind places' has become the leitmotif of geographical inequalities since the 2008 crisis. Yet, the term's origins, definition and implications are poorly specified and risk obscuring the differentiated problems and pathways of different kinds of areas. This paper explicates the geographical etymology and spatial imaginary of 'left behind places'. It argues that the appellation and its spatial expression have modified how geographical inequalities are understood and addressed by recovering a more relational understanding of multiple 'left behind' conditions, widening the analytical frame beyond only economic concerns, and opening up interpretations of the 'development' of 'left behind places' and their predicaments and prospects. While renewing interest in fundamental urban and regional concerns, what needs to endure from the ascendance of the 'left behind places' label is the terminology and spatial imaginary of reducing geographical inequalities and enhancing social and spatial justice.

“…In line with recent approaches in Economic Geography and Regional Studies (e.g. Eder and Trippl, 2019; Glückler et al, 2023), more engagement is needed with the idea that peripheral regions, of different kinds (see, for example, Nilsen et al, 2023), can also be generative contexts for innovation and climate-related transitions. Such a direction would promise to open new trading zones between Economic Geography, Regional Studies and Sustainability Transition research towards strengthening a framework to understand sustainability transitions in peripheral regions.…”

While the role of cities and regions is increasingly acknowledged for climate action and discussed in the literature on sustainability transitions, the specific condition of peripheral regions has received less attention. This article develops a bibliometric review to shed light and discuss how the (multi-dimensional) notion of periphery has been conceived and implicitly declinate in different literature streams studying low-carbon sustainability transitions at the sub-national level. While the studies explicitly addressing the issues of peripherality are still scarce, the article identifies four critical dimensions that contribute to frame structural bottlenecks and opportunities: socio-spatial unevenness, asset fragility, network positionality and agency and the multi-scalar embeddedness of transition policies. At the interface of urban and regional studies and sustainability transitions’ research, these dimensions open up new research challenges and trading zones ahead for peripheral regions on navigating troubled waters of sustainability transitions.
