There is now a wide spread interest in regions as a key focus in
the organization and governance of economic growth and wealth
creation. This important book considers the factors that influence
and shape the competitive performance of regions.
This is not just an issue of academic interest and debate, but also
of increasing policy deliberation and action. However, as the
readings in this book make clear, the very idea of regional
competitiveness is itself complex and contentious. Many academics
and policy makers have used the concept without fully considering
what is meant by the term and how it can be measured. Policy
formulation has tended to rush ahead of understanding and analysis
and the purpose of this book is to close this important gap in
understanding.
This book was previously published as a special issue of "Regional
Studies."
