Regional Policy and Regional Integration

Edited by Niles Hansen, Kenneth Button and Peter Nijkamp

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Regional Policy and Regional Integration reprints the most important papers on those government policies that have an intentional and formal geographic focus. These policies have typically been motivated by equity considerations such as reducing unemployment, increasing incomes, promoting structural adjustments or realizing development potentials. While the main objective of regional policy is to improve conditions in deprived areas, public resources must be used in such a way that these objectives are achieved efficiently.
