Originally published in 1977. This book provides the first concise
non-technical account of what the main kinds of regional problems
are, how they arise, and the kinds of policy which have been used
to tackle them in the UK, USA and Western Europe. The book starts
with a discussion of why "regional problems" really are situations
which call for special action, followed by a short preliminary
classification of problem regions (including those in the less
developed countries), then on to a more detailed survey of the
origins and experience of selected problem regions in the more
developed market economies. The authors focus on four broad kinds
of problem region; agricultural regions, coal mining regions, old
textile regions, and so-called "congested" regions. They conclude
with a selective survey of regional policies in these more advanced
economies, distinguishing and comparing the main trends and the
different national styles.
