Responses to Geographical Marginality and Marginalization: From Social Innovation to Regional Development: Perspectives on Geographical Marginality, cartea 5

Editat de Etienne Nel, Stanko Pelc
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 aug 2020
This book examines regional responses to marginality by highlighting social innovation, local capacity and new path formations in what are often seen as economically weak regions where policy and institutional considerations play a key role. Divided into three parts, it covers a wide range of topics related to geographical marginality from various angles, on both regional and local scales. The first part focuses on the role of social innovation and illustrates the themes of social innovation and new localism, local revitalization and social entrepreneurship. The second part then addresses the issues of economic responses, valorization, resource use and local action in response to marginalization. Lastly, the third part explores various policies and measures taken to respond to marginality and intensify regional development in marginal areas.

Recenzii

“The book's contribution to the scientific literature in this scientific field is important, making it a good and useful read. Additionally, the content of the book is well structured, and the text is easy to read, including illustrations with maps, schemes, and tables, which make it accessible not only to researchers and policy-makers but also to everyone who wants to understand the various responses to marginalization and peripheralization.” (Gabriel Camara, Papers in Regional Science, Vol. 99 (6), 2020)
