Includes bibliographical references and index.
Stimson (geographical sciences and planning, U. of Queensland, Australia) and Stough (public policy, George Mason U.) offer a new conceptual framework that addresses how leadership, institutions, and entrepreneurship play a role in the process of regional endogenous growth. They discuss the evolution of new growth theory in regional and city economic development; the influence of resource endowments and market fit, leadership, institutional, and entrepreneurship factors in the growth of cities and regions; and examples of cities and regions from the US, Europe, and Pacific Rim. The book is intended for students and scholars of regional development, planning, and public policy.
