Culture, Institutions and Economic Development. A Study of Eight European Regions (en Inglés) - Michael Keating;John Loughlin;Kris Deschouwer

This book offers a systematic comparison of eight distinct regions and stateless nations, each with its own historical identity, but which is constantly being rebuilt in changing economic and political conditions. Avoiding economic or cultural determinism, the authors show how region-builders can shape their own responses to global challenges to produce models of development reflecting differing understandings and social compromises.

Culture, Institutions and Economic Development will be warmly welcomed by academics within the fields of regional studies, European studies and political science.
