The Economic Geography of the Second Machine Age

In 2006, the digital economy underwent a dramatic transformation that changed the map of talent migration.

Theme: Economic geography and applying Michel Foucault's concept of episteme

Subject Article: "Vancouver’s high-tech hurdle: Attracting top-level talent."

Other Links: 1. "The Texas Migration Miracle."
2. "Webcast: The San Antonio Brain Gain."
3. "The Second Machine Age."
4. "Why innovation and start-ups are thriving in ‘flyover country’."
5. "Enrico Moretti: The Geography of Jobs."
6. "Demographic Changes in and near US Downtowns."
7. "A Revolution that’s Rewriting the Laws of Economics."
8. "From Metal to Minds: Economic Restructuring in the Rust Belt."
9. "That 'Useless' Liberal Arts Degree Has Become Tech's Hottest Ticket."

Postscript: Concerning episteme, the first machine age is one. The second machine age is its own episteme. Don't take data analysis from the first and apply it to the second.
