This book examines the extent to which spatial economic convergence
has taken place in the European Union and analyses the
effectiveness of regional policy. The authors examine the differing
economic features of the European regions and provide an
institutional background to regional policy at both the national
and Union level. Theories of economic growth are discussed and
assessed in terms of the relative performance of regional economies
in Europe. The authors then analyse the extent to which economic
convergence, for example in terms of income and employment, has
materialized across regions using a variety of techniques including
mean reversion and time varying parameter procedures. The analysis
is both at the level of the entire EU area and at more disaggregate
levels that look at specific regions of the Union and at specific
sectors. The book offers an assessment of some of the key regional
policy instruments used and pays particular attention to the role
of infrastructure investment as a tool for enhancing regional
growth. It also considers the extent to which some non-regional
specific policies impact upon the development of regional economies
and explores the implications of closer monetary ties between
member states. This book will be of interest to academics and
policymakers concerned with regional science, European studies and
macroeconomics.
