Zusammenfassung:This book provides an integrated view of aspects of spatial economic policy. Focusing on local representations and reactions to the 1992/1993 Review of the Assisted Areas Map, the author builds a discussion round that event which provides useful insights into perceptions of and attitudes to the use of regional policy. It brings together ideas and arguments from economics, geography, politics, local government studies - and sets these in the context of spatial economic policy. It contains a critical assessment of local authority submissions to the review process, and also includes suggested learning activities
Based on a unique information source, which itself contains unpublished and inaccessible research information, this book is able to focus on so-far unexplored areas of spatial economic policy. The author provides an up-to-date review of the condition of regional policy in Britain; assesses aspects of the role of local authorities, particularly in terms of resource use; and investigates the ways that local authorities and other local agencies represent their economies to the outside world
