In September 1977 a 'Regional Science Symposium' was held at the
Faculty of Economics of the University of Groningen in the
Netherlands. Organized because of the recent establishment at the
Faculty of Economics of a group that is engaged in teaching and
research in the field of regional science, the aim of the symposium
was to make university members more familiar with regional science
and to introduce the newly created group to the national and
international scene. Two separate topics were selected, of
potential interest to both re searchers and policy-makers. The
first, spatial inequalities and regional development, was chosen
because of its central place in regional science. Authors from
several disciplines were asked to approach this theme from a
general, policy orientated point of view. This ensured the
enlightenment of the various dimensions of spatial inequality and
its implications for regional policy. The results have been
collected in the volume Spatial Inequalities and Regional
Development. The second theme focused on spatial statistical
analysis. This branch of statistics is a relatively new one which
receives growing attention among researchers in the field of
applied regional science. The meeting on this topic concentrated on
new results of research on the use of appro priate statistical and
econometric methods for analyzing spatial data. The papers
concerned have been collected into another volume, Explora tory and
Explanatory Statistical Analysis of Spatial Data."
