Unequal distribution of income is one of the most important socio-economic issues. The processes of globalisation and integration are accelerating economic growth; however, at the same time, imbalances between regions are growing. Reducing inequalities within regions and national economies, as well as around the world, is important for individual and societal well-being and cohesion, and for effective state policies.

This book investigates the problem of left-behind regions in the European Union. It first introduces the reader to the theories of regional imbalances and problems with measuring them. It then explores imbalances in the European Union using a variety of indicators and describes the EU’s regional policy for reducing regional disparities. It uses an empirical shift-share analysis to assess the productivity of EU regions which are lagging behind. The book also provides an empirical analysis of the effectiveness of EU funds in increasing labour productivity performed with DEA methodology.

This book can be used as a teaching resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students and can serve as reference material for academics and researchers, as well as policymakers at the European, national and local levels.

Recenzijas

Ensuring left-behind places can catch up with richer regions is among the most severe challenges our economies and polities face. This book is a comprehensive compendium of evidence on both regional inequalities and corrective policies in the European Union. This valuable analysis uncovers new facts and sheds light on the EUs remaining challenges.

--Dani Rodrrik,

Increasing regional disparities in income across the regions of the European Union are a major concern to us all. However, effective policy responses remain elusive. This book makes an excellent contribution as to what can be done. It provides a valuable review of relevant theory, a robust empirical analysis of key data and the contribution of policy. A core finding is that there is an urgent need to deliver new policy initiatives to improve the productivity of Europes left behind regions. It should be a core reader for students, academics and policy makers in the field.
