Fifteen chapters, presented by Karlsson (economics of technological change, Jönköping U., Sweden), Johansson (economics, Jönköping U.), and Stough (public policy, George Mason U., US), review key research areas in the investigation of regional economics. All deal with the core topics of agglomeration, innovation, and regional competition, although some deal more with the influence of innovation and agglomeration on the location of economic activity and others deal more directly with the issue of regional competition. Among the specific topics addressed are the role of geographically overlapping markets for a municipality's diversity in retail and durables; opportunities for cross-border collaboration in support of Irish micro-enterprises; telecommunications and regional disparities in an era of globalization; spatial policies, planning, and urban competitiveness in London; regional research and development outsourcing in bioscientific industries; agglomeration economies and firm growth in the Dutch information and communication technology industry; and competition and cooperation in economic development among local jurisdictions in a large urban area.
