Many were unsure, even...
Scholars taking the evolutionary perspective argue that technologies, competence and institutions of successful paths may spill over to related industry initiatives subsequent paths. The notion co-evolution has been introduced as an analytical category for such interconnectivity. In this article, we investigate development salmon farming in Norway a path its linkages with cod farming, emerging path. public debate, there expectation knowledge solutions from will diffuse aquaculture other...
