Developing Regions for Regional Development – Towards a new Swedish model

Editor(s): Fredrik Rakar, Pontus Tallberg

Publisher: Reglab

ISBN: 978-91-9821-220-4

This book describes how the prolonged structural reform in Sweden has forced regions to develop their institutional role and capacity in an explorative way. As the national government has withdrawn from strategy formulation and decision-making in regional policy, and more issues on the local level of governance have to be coordinated regionally, the demands on the Swedish regions’ institutional capacity have increased. The book can be orded free of charge with a mail to: pontus.tallberg@outlook.com
