Regeneration of Local Economies

An examination of recent initiatives to stimulate local economic regeneration, this book considers the institutional and political constraints on implementing the policies suggested by economic analysis. It includes analyses of the causes of local economic problems and of the difficulties involved in implementing regenerative policies, as well as in-depth studies of major recent attempts at regeneration. Focusing throughout on Scotland--a country that has developed creative approaches to solving the problems that local employment initiatives seek to tackle--this book affords new insight into imaginative solutions to a common economic plight.Morison, Hugh is the author of 'Regeneration of Local Economies', published 1987 under ISBN 9780198285519 and ISBN 0198285515.
