This book presents the findings of the extensive research
progrannne funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German
Research Council) and entitled 'Technological Change and Regional
Development in Europe'. The goal of this programme was to carry out
research by means of empirical surveys into the relationship
between technological change and regional development. Over a
period of six years, a total of 50 research projects have been
undertaken in three phases, each lasting two years. This research
programme has succeeded in actively involving leading German
regional scientists from many universities as well as
non-university research institutions. In addition, numerous
research projects were carried out in close co-operation with
internationally renowned partners. We should like to express our
gratitude for the support provided by the Deutsche
Forschungsgemeinschaft. Without their financial backing of the
research programme, it would not have been possible to undertake
such an ambitious project. Thanks also go to the contributors of
this volume for their willingness to participate in our joint
project. We wish in addition to acknowledge the contribution of
Prof. Dr. Philip Cooke whose refereeing of the chapters has
enhanced the quality of the work presented here. Finally, our
thanks go to Angela Spence for her expert editorial assistance,
linguistic editing and the preparation of the Index, and also
Franco Vaio for taking care of the technical aspects and production
of the final copy. Their combined efforts have been crucial for
successfully bringing together contributions from so many different
authors in a single volume.
