Bringing together comparative case studies from Central Europe and
South America, this book focuses on 'new' regions - regions created
as political projects of modernization and 're-scaling'. Through
this approach it de-codes 'New Regionalism' in terms of its
contributions to institutional change, while acknowledging its
contested nature and contradictions. It questions whether these
regions are merely a strategy of neo-liberal adjustment to changing
political and economic conditions, or whether they are indicative
of true reform, greater citizen participation and empowerment. It
assesses whether these regions are really representing something
new or whether they are a reconfiguration of traditional power
relationships. It provides a timely critical analysis of
'region-building' and the extent to which national processes of
decentralization and sub-national processes of regionalism can
enhance the effectiveness and responsiveness of governance.
