Abstract: The growing prominence of service activities in the European economies is part of a major structural change. In this paper, in contrast to the implicit determinism found in much research, the new locational possibilities being created by a reorganisation of service production within both private business and the public sector are emphasised. The present phase of reorganisation offers a ‘window of opportunity’ for policy influence before new patterns become established as a further round of uneven development.
