As the international economy globalises, there is a need for
national infrastructure systems to adapt to form a global
infrastructure system. This network of networks aids mobility
between national systems as a means of supporting their territorial
needs and preferences. This reflects a strategic approach to state
infrastructuring as nations seek to utilise these physical systems
to support and enhance their territoriality. Providing a thorough
examination through the lens of economic infrastructure, the book
addresses the forces of integration and fragmentation in global
networks. This book explores the trend towards the development of
regional infrastructure systems within the context of territorial
strategy. Regional systems emerge out of states seeking to position
themselves within the international system. Colin Turner identifies
the diverse processes that are driving regional infrastructures, as
well as examining the formal and informal patterns of integration
that are shaping developments. This book is ideal for international
political economy and regional development scholars who seek an
advanced understanding of current regional infrastructure systems.
It will also serve as a vital tool for practitioners who need to
understand the implications for policy-making.
