The politics of uneven development

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  26 October 2009

Extract

Uneven development is not a new phenomenon; it has always been with us. It can be identified on a global scale, a continental scale, or a national and subnational level. World history, furthermore, is not without many instances of political concern about relative economic prosperity between states and regions or of occasional policies seeking to increase prosperity and to deal with poverty.
