Pike2007 - What Kind of Local and Regional Development and For Whom
PIKE A., RODRI GUEZ -POSE A. and TOMANEY J. (2007) What kind of local and regional development and for whom?, Regional
Studies 41, 12531269. This paper asks the question, what kind of local and regional development and for whom? It examines
what is meant by local and regional development, its historical context, its geographies in space, territory, place and scale and
its different varieties, principles and values. The socially uneven and geographically differentiated distribution of who and
where benefits and loses from particular forms of local and regional development is analysed. A holistic, progressive and sustainable
version of local and regional development is outlined with reflections upon its limits and political renewal. Locally and regionally
determined development models should not be developed independently of more foundational principles and values such as
democracy, equity, internationalism and justice. Specific local and regional articulations are normative questions and subject to
social determination and political choices in particular national and international contexts.
PIKE A., RODRI GUEZ -POSE A. et TOMANEY J. (2007) Quelle sorte damenagement du territoire et pour qui?, Regional Studies 41,
12531269. Cet article pose la question suivante: quelle sorte damenagement du territoire et pour qui? Il cherche a` examiner ce
que lon veut dire par amenagement du territoire, son historique, ses orientations quant a` lespace, au territoire, a` lendroit et a`
lechelle, et ses differentes formes, principes et valeurs. On examine la distribution socialement irregulie`re et geographiquement
distincte des gens et des emplacements qui profitent ou perdent des formes particulie`res damenagement du territoire. On esquisse
ici une version de lamenagement du territoire a` la fois holistique, progressive et durable, tout en reflechissant sur ses limites et sur le
regain politique. Des mode`les de developpement, determines sur les plans local ou regional, ne devraient pas etre developpes inde-
pendamment des principes et des valeurs de base, tels la democratie, lequite, linternationalisme et la justice. Des articulations
locales et regionales specifiques sont des questions normatives et dependent de la determination sociale et des choix politiques
dans des contextes nationaux et internationaux particuliers.
PIKE A., RODRI GUEZ -POSE A. und TOMANEY J. (2007) Welche Art von lokaler und regionaler Entwicklung und fur wen?
Regional Studies 41, 1253 1269. In diesem Beitrag wird die Frage gestellt: welche Art von lokaler und regionaler Entwicklung
und fur wen? Untersucht werden der Begriff der lokalen und regionalen Entwicklung sowie ihr historischer Kontext, ihre
Geografien in Raum, Gebiet, Ort und Mastab sowie ihre verschiedenen Varietaten, Prinzipien und Werte. Analysiert wird
die gesellschaftlich ungleichmaige und geografisch differenzierte Verteilung hinsichtlich der Frage, wer von bestimmten
Formen der lokalen und regionalen Entwicklung wo profitiert oder verliert. Es wird eine ganzheitliche, progressive und nachhal-
tige Version der lokalen und regionalen Entwicklung beschrieben, und es werden U berlegungen hinsichtlich ihrer Grenzen und
politischen Erneuerung angestellt. Lokal und regional bestimmte Entwicklungsmodelle sollten nicht unabhangig von grundlegen-
deren Prinzipien und Werten wie Demokratie, Gleichheit, Internationalismus und Gerechtigkeit entwickelt werden. Spezifische
lokale und regionale A uerungen sind normative Fragen und unterliegen einer gesellschaftlichen Determination sowie einer poli-
tischen Auswahl in bestimmten nationalen und internationalen Kontexten.
