The Routledge Handbook to Regional Development in Central and Eastern Europe

Since the fall of state socialism, the East-Central European (ECE) group of countries - Bulgaria, Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia and Romania - have undergone new processes of socio-economic restructuring, leading to new patterns of regional differentiation and development. Influenced by a combination of inherited and newly emerging factors, territorial disparities have been on the rise. Taking a comparative approach, this book delivers a comprehensive view on the complex system of regional development within ECE region. This important contribution will be a key resource for scholars of European Studies, Development Studies, Economics and Human Geography.
