Regions, whether urban or rural, make up the national economy. Regional development is a policy concern of governments at federal, state and local levels. Regional economic development theories and policies are critically examined and the determinants of regional development are evaluated within an historical context. The impact of globalisation and national competition policy on regional development are examined as are the roles of government and regional stakeholders in driving the regional development process.
