Twenty-five years into transformation, Central and Eastern European
regions have undergone substantial socio-economic restructuring,
integrating into European and global networks and producing new
patterns of regional differentiation and development. Yet
post-socialist modernisation has not been without its
contradictions, manifesting in increasing social and territorial
inequalities. Recent studies also suggest there are apparent limits
to post-socialist growth models, accompanying a new set of
challenges within an increasingly uncertain world. Aiming to
deliver a new synthesis of regional development issues at the
crossroads between 'post-socialism' and 'post-transition', this
book identifies the main driving forces of spatial restructuring in
Central and Eastern Europe, and charts the different regional
development paths which take shape against the backdrop of
post-crisis Europe. A comparative approach is used to highlight
common development challenges and the underlying patterns of
socio-economic differentiation alike. The issues investigated
within the Handbook extend to a discussion of the varied economic
consequences of transition, the social structures and institutional
systems which underpin development processes, and the broadly
understood sustainability of Central and Eastern Europe's current
development model. This book will be of interest to academics and
policymakers working in the fields of regional studies, economic
geography, development studies and policy.
