Examining the current trends in regional economic development in
Europe, Restructuring Industry and Territory explores ways in which
the restructuring of industry and territorial development relate to
each other, their emergent interdependency and role in economic
development. The book argues that the structural and cultural
features of regions play an important part in helping or hindering
concerted policies for regional development. Using case studies
from different industries in a variety of regions, the contributors
show that the pressures for restructuring, such as
internationalisation or even 'globalisation', have been mediated by
formerly nationally rooted industries in Europe becoming
increasingly integrated, due to the ongoing processes of
technological and organisational innovation, and political
regulation.
Examining late-1990s trends in regional economic development in
Europe, this book explores the ways in which the restructuring of
industry and territorial development relate to each other, their
emergent interdependency and role in economic development. The book
argues that the structural and cultural features of regions play an
important part in helping or hindering concerted policies for
regional development. It considers the industrial and regional
institutional and policy responses to the problems caused by the
interaction between restructuring industries and territorial
development, and evaluates the latest ideas in institutional
strategy and policy for local economic development in Europe.
Finally, the book explores potential future routes to prosperity
and regional economic development, providing alternative solutions
to the fashion for raising industry and regional "competitiveness"
in the face of the apparently inexorable "globalization" of the
regional economic development.
