The Last Ten Years of Regional Science: Advances in Theory and in Policy Evaluation

Abstract

Some months ago, the Scientific Board of AISRe and the Editor of this Journal asked us, also in our capacities as immediate Past Presidents of the Association, to edit a new celebratory special issue with a specific focus on the past ten years. We asked prominent Italian scholars in the field to review the most significant studies produced mostly in the past decade (including their own) and to address new topics that had not been covered by the previous celebratory issue or that had registered important advances since then.
