Providing an analysis of the nature of regional planning and governance, the book traces the development of regional planning and the institutions associated with it.

In concluding that regionalism is an imperative feature of politics in most countries, associated with almost any of the variety of forms of governance, the author offers a major appraisal of the significance of regional planning in an intemational context
