内容説明

In the first half of this book, region-by-region profiles review the experience of the 80s and reflect on the present climate, assessing problems and opportunities as they look forward across the next decade. The second half provides 25 commentaries on changes influencing the development of regions from questions of industry, technology and employment to the impact of national policy and 1992, and the prospects and capacity for regional policy and development. From these, a number of conclusions are drawn for policy development at local, regional, national and EEC levels.
