This book provides an in-depth investigation of the role of the
private and public sectors in land markets and regional economics,
and explores the reasons behind government intervention in the
interests of sustainable growth. The authors explore the subject of
regional development and changing land use in a variety of
different countries. They examine broad themes such as urban
structure, infrastructure and eco-structure, and look in detail at
issues including housing, transport and technology clustering. They
also demonstrate that for a proper understanding of long-term
changes, the broader institutional settings and policy regimes are
of critical importance, as it is within this framework that private
and public actors interact. It is therefore vital to search for
institutional arrangements where conflicts of interest can be dealt
with in a constructive way, and where ecological values are taken
into consideration. The contributions in this book highlight these
difficulties and offer practical proposals to improve current
practices. Regional scientists, geographers and development
policymakers will welcome this rigorous exploration of the roles of
the private and public sectors in the context of economic
development.
