This book is the first quantitative description of Europe's
economic development at a regional level over the entire twentieth
century. Based on a new and comprehensive set of data, it brings
together a group of leading economic historians in order to
describe and analyze the development of European regions, both for
nation states and for Europe as a whole. This provides a new
transnational perspective on Europe's quantitative development,
offering for the first time a systematic long-run analysis of
national policies independent from the use of national statistical
units. The new transnational dimension of data allows for the
analysis of national policies in a more thorough way than ever
before. The book provides a comprehensive database at the level of
modern NUTS 2 regions for the period 1900-2010 in 10-year
intervals, and a panoramic view of economic development both below
and above the national level. It will be of great interest to
economic historians, economic geographers, development economists
and those with an interest in economic growth.

first time a systematic long-run analysis of national policies
independently from the use of national statistical units. The
volume is distinctive in systematically going beyond the usual
collection of national histories connected by some accounts of
relations between nations. Instead, the book gives a panoramic view
of economic development both below and above the national level.
Second, the book aims at providing a comprehensive database at the
level of modern NUTS-II regions for the period 1900-2010 in
ten-year intervals. This will be invaluable for economic
historians, economic geographers, development economists and those
with an interest in economic growth. Finally, the book shows that
the new transnational dimension of data allows for the analysis of
national policies in a more thorough way than was ever possible
before. The book therefore will be unrivalled and indispensable
background reading for economists, historians and geographers
interested in comparative economic development in the long-run.
