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 region'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.
