Thank you Michael Meadon for sending me the link to the Evolution for Everyone blogsite by David Sloan Wilson. In a series of blog articles David describes evolution in economics from different perspectives. Reading these articles made me realise why local stakeholder groups are so ineffective in promoting or driving local economic growth. Very often the social dynamics and social power plays are ignored. We have to find better ways of recognising local initiatives, but we also have to be aware of the social selection process that allows for this emergence.
