Originally published in 1988. Leading international researchers in
regional economic development have contributed an integrated set of
chapters reviewing the whole field and taking stock of current
thinking. The book is in honour of Francois Perroux, the father of
regional development theory, whose contributions to two important
concepts in economics - time and space - have been substantial. The
book comprises five parts. Part one covers Perroux's work in
general and on growth poles in particular. Part two deals with 'the
politics of place', population and regional development, techniques
for regional policy analysis and a neoclassical approach to
regional economics. In part three the Canadian scene is reviewed at
national and regional levels. In part four chapters on urban
development, small and medium-size cities, and capital grants deal
with the experiences of other countries. Part five concludes the
book with a chapter on growth poles, optimal size of cities, and
regional disparities and government intervention.
