from International Journal of Public Sector Management Vol 22 Iss 3 2009, pp. 260 - 271
"The purpose of this paper is to introduce the role of territory in (city-) regionalisation and to revisit the problems of distance from the core in cluster strategies. The paper further aims to discuss the implications of how agglomeration and networking economies, strongly promoted and based on city regions, are being realised across national boundaries."
