Inhaltsangabe

The European Community does not exist just at a point or in a vacuum. It is a mosaic of regions of various sizes, shapes and functions. The attributes of each region and its location in relation to others are vital for its existence and a development as the way in which it is managed. This study aims to draw attention to the features and locations of regions and to their implications. People, natural resources and means of production are distributed in complex ways, and people and products move or are moved from place to place. Increasingly the influence of the Community is being felt in its 12 member states and a new geography is emerging, with pressure to achieve convergence if not homogeneity. The book strives to identify and assess the problems and prospects of the various regions of the EC and also views the Community as a system of interdependent regions. The EC has become increasingly important economically and more recently politically in a changing Europe, and its enlargement seems imminent. Attention is therefore also given throughout the book to the activities and influence of the EC in the broader context of Europe and neighbouring parts of Africa and Asia.
