Book Description
This book, based on a conference organized by the University of Joensuu within the training programme of the Council of Europe, brings together a leading group of development theorists and researchers in the field of geography and regional science. The book examines different development processes which are prevailing in the European regions in transition. The individual articles deal with spatio-economic restructuring in the European fringe areas, ie outside the well developed main core of Europe, bringing to light the diversity of local, regional and interregional development problems and responding strategies in the enlarged Europe. Effects of supranational integration, local opportunities and transborder connections and urban-rural structures in transition are analysed. The book presents topical development issues in the new Europe from Greece to Norway and from Estonia to Spain and Ireland.
