Strategic Approaches to Regional Development : Smart Experimentation in Less-Favoured Regions, Hardback Book

Strategic Approaches to Regional Development : Smart Experimentation in Less-Favoured Regions Hardback

Edited by Iryna Kristensen, Alexandre Dubois, Jukka Teras

Part of the Regions and Cities series

Hardback

Description

The existence and persistence of regional disparities between European regions require context-tailored policies to promote structural change.

This book explores the congruence between place-based development and regional competitiveness in the EU context.

Drawing on a range of social science disciplines, this book unpicks the complexity of regional transformation processes, aiming to enhance the applicability and transferability of theoretical approaches to innovation and place-based regional development in diverse European territorial settings.

The contributors have a particular focus on less-favoured regions and on the application of Smart Specialisation – a strategic approach to innovation-based regional development – to the issues at hand. The book comes at a critical moment, meeting the growing demand of academics, practitioners and policymakers with an interest in promoting regional economic growth and well-being.
