ABSTRACT: In this paper, we present a critical assessment of recent economic development policy directions centered on the concept of regional innovation clusters.We begin by investigating
the rationale underlying the Obama administration’s promotion of regional innovation clusters
(RICs) and their introduction to the policy arena in its Strategy for American Innovation. The
connections among RICs and existing research and policies in industry and occupational clusters,
regional innovation systems and regional economic development are identified and analyzed to
highlight those most critical challenges to conceptualizing and theorizing RICs.While we applaud
the long overdue focus of economic development policies on subnational regions, we identify
several major conceptual shortcomings and programmatic difficulties associated with RICs as a
centerpiece for economic development strategies.
