This book analyzes devolution as it affects the English Regions,
working from the perspective of uneven development, and drawing on
the rich tradition of regional geography. Currently, London is the
power centre ruling over the other English regions. The first part
of the book looks at how this regional structure has arisen, and
the theories that can be used to analyze it. The contributors
discuss the nature of regional problems and governance, the
institutions involved in regional governance and regional
approaches to economic development.
The second part of the book devotes a chapter to each English
region, examining each regiona (TM)s unique characteristics, and
the opportunities created for it by devolution. By looking
carefully at the regions, this part of the book sheds light on the
question of whether Regional governance benefits the regions, or
simply rescales governance to introduce another layer of
bureaucracy.
