Investigating Sub-state Interpretations of European Territorial Cohesion: The Case of the United Kingdom

International Planning Studies, 2011, vol. 16, issue 4, 377-396

Abstract: In recent years the meaning and different dimensions and implications of European territorial cohesion have been a matter of debate in some academic circles, amongst elements of the European Commission and in certain Member States and regions. In 2008, the European Commission published its ‘Green Paper on Territorial Cohesion’, launching a debate on the meaning of territorial cohesion and potential implications for European, Member State and sub-state policies. Informed by this context, this paper considers how the concept of territorial cohesion is being interpreted, and its meaning (re)constructed, by sub-state territories and actors in the United Kingdom.
