Since the early 1980s, the region has been central to thinking about the character of the global economy. This book offers a critique of the 'new regionalism' and covers the 'regional question', including its concerns with equity and uneven development. It challenges to consider the region as a central scale of action in the global economy.

Addresses the critical intersections between process and place which underpin the formation of creative enterprises in the inner city's industrial districts. This book contains case studies of industrial restructuring within exemplary sites in prominent world cities such as London, Singapore, San Francisco and Vancouver.

Serves both as a critique of the "new regionalism" and a return to the "regional question," including its concerns with equity and uneven development. This book challenges researchers and students to consider the region as a central scale of action in the global economy.
