Tiivistelmä:A central element of the competitive dynamics of capitalism is creative destruction. This study examines the creative field (here as: c-f.), that is, the locationally-differentiated web of production activities and associated social relationships shaping patterns of entrepreneurship and innovation. The c-f. operates at many different levels of scale. This paper argues, however, that the urban and regional scale is of special interest and significance. Accordingly, it is described how the c-f. functions as a site of i. entrepreneurial behaviour and new firm formation, ii. technical and organizational change, and iii. the symbolic (re-)elaboration of cultural products. All of these activities are deeply structured by relations of spatial-organizational proximity etc.
