Regions, Globalization, Development
Abstract
S COTT A. J. and S TORPER M. (2003) Regions, globalization, development , Reg. Studies 37 , 579-593. Regional economies are synergy-laden systems of physical and relational assets, and intensifying globalization is making this situation more and not less the case. As such, regions are an essential dimension of the development process, not just in the more advanced countries but also in less- developed parts of the world. Development theorists have hitherto largely tended to overlook this critical issue in favour of an emphasis on macroeconomic considerations. At the same time, conventional theories of the relationship between urbanization and economic development have favoured the view that the former is simply an effect of the latter. To be fully general, the theory of development must incorporate the role of cities and regions as active and causal elements in the economic growth process. This argument has consequences for development policy, especially in regard to the promotion of positive agglomeration economies and the initiation of growth in poorer regions. A related policy problem concerns ways of dealing with the increase in interregional inequalities associated with contemporary globalization. Issues of economic geography are thus of major significance to development theory and practice. S COTT A. J. et S TORPER M. (2003) Les régions, la mondialisation, le développement, Reg. Studies 37 , 579-593. Les é conomies régionales sont des systèmes d'atouts physiques et relationnels bourrés de synergies, et l'intensification de la mondialisation renforce cet état des choses. En tant que telles, les régions constituent un élément clé du processus de développement, non seulement dans les pays plus avancés, mais aussi dans les zones moins développées du monde. Jusqu'ici, les théoriciens du développement ont eu tendance à ignorer en grande partie cette question primordiale, favorisant plutôt des considérations macroéconomiques. En même temps, des théories traditionnelles du rapport entre l'urbanisation et le développement économique ont affirmé que celle-là s'explique par celui-ci. En principe, la théorie du développement doit embrasser le rôle des grandes villes et des régions comme éléments essentiels et causaux dans le processus de croissance économique. Cette affirmation a de l' importance pour la politique de développement, surtout pour ce qui est de la promotion des économies d'agglomération positives et de l'amorçage de la croissance dans les régions défavorisées. Un problème de politique connexe concerne les façons d'aborder la question du creusement des inégalités interrégionales liées à la mondialisation contemporaine. Par la suite, les questions de géographie économique sont d'une importance majeure pour ce qui concerne la théorie du développement, en principe et en pratique. S COTT A. J. und S TORPER M. (2003) Regionen, Globalisation, Entwicklung, Reg. Studies 37 , 579-593. Regionalwirtschaften sind Synergie-geladene Systeme mit physischen und relationalen Vermögenswerten, welche die immer intensiver werdende Globalisierung nicht entlastet, sondern weiter verstärkt. Regionen als solche stellen eine wesentliche Dimension des Entwicklungsprozesses dar, in den höher entwickelten Ländern wie auch in den weniger entwickelten Teilen der Welt. Entwicklungstheoretiker haben dies kritische Problem meist übersehen, und stattdessen makro-ökonomische Überlegungen betont. Gleichzeitig haben konventionelle Theorien die Beziehung zwischen Verstädterung und wirtschaftlicher Entwicklung die Ansicht vertreten, daß erstere einfach eine Auswirkung der letzteren ist. Um allumfassend zu sein, muß die Theorie der Entwicklung die Rolle der Städte und Regionen als aktive und kausale Elemente in den wirtschaftlichen Wachstumsprozeß einbinden. Dieses Argument hat Folgen für die Entwicklungspolitik, besonders im Hinblick auf die Förderung der positiven Ballungswirtschaften und der Einleitung eines Wachstumsprozesses in minder bemittelten Regionen. Ein damit verbundenes Problem der Bestrebungen betrifft Arten der Handhabung der zunehmenden interregionalen Ungleichheiten in Verbindung mit der derzeitigen Globalisierung. Fragen der Wirtschaftsgeographie sind damit von großer Bedeutung für Theorie und Praxis der Entwicklung.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
