ABSTRACT

This paper focuses on path development processes after a sudden path exhaustion. We analyse the decline, the closure and the attempts at the re-orientation of a forestry-based industry agglomeration in Southern Norway, located around the municipality of Hønefoss. In particular, this paper focuses on the Treklyngen holding company in Hønefoss. This paper explores how policy may be influenced by and built upon regional capabilities to support new path development in the aftermath of path exhaustion. It also shows how natural resources and institutional endowments could contribute to path development, under such difficult circumstances in a peripheral region.

摘要

本文重点研究路径突然耗尽后的路径发展过程。我们分析了挪威南部位于 Hønefoss 市周围的林业产业集群的衰退、关闭和重新定位的尝试。本文特别关注 Hønefoss 的 Treklyngen 控股公司。本文探讨了政策如何受到区域能力的影响并建立在区域能力的基础上，以在路径耗尽后支持新路径的发展。它还表明，在边缘地区如此困难的情况下，自然资源和制度禀赋如何为道路发展做出贡献。
