Developing Locally

An International Comparison of Local and Regional Economic Development

Herausgeber: Beer, Andrew; Maude, Alaric; Haughton, Graham

Beschreibung

Despite the enormous interest in British local and regional economic development and the growth in policies, programs and organizations to encourage this development, little attention has been paid to cross-national comparisons. This book fills that gap by offering comparisons of local and regional economic development organizations objectives, activities and effectiveness across four English speaking nations - the US, England, Australia and Northern Ireland.
