Riassunto:

This book examines major policy and planning issues in development studies from the regional science perspective. It investigates questions such as: How are communities able to deal with uncertainties raised by conflicts, technology, and external shocks in the process of development? ; How can nations achieve sustainable development in terms of resource allocation and management? ; and How can developing countries improve their economic competitiveness while maintaining the objectives of equitable and coordinated growth among different regions? using case studies that focus on different subfields, like infrastructure, environment, data science, sustainability and resilience. The book is organized in three parts. Part I clarifies fundamental issues regarding development studies and regional science in general, while Part II includes several case studies that address development-related opportunities and challenges with a focus on Asian countries. Lastly, Part III offers a global perspective and explores development experiences from countries throughout the world. Featuring contributions by leading academics and practitioners working at various organizations linked to international development, and including multidisciplinary analyses, the book appeals to students who are interested in development studies and regional science. It also offers planners and policymakers fresh insights into regional economic development.
