Content:
"This book offers cross-national evidence of the effectiveness of financial and physical incentives for regional development. It challenges the traditional wisdom that competition is harmful for regional development or at best can be zero-sum. The book takes a labour market perspective in looking at the benefits from regional development. It reports some evidence of how much Americans are willing to take home as pay, given certain characteristics. Further, it reports findings regarding the effectiveness of regional development policies in India, firms' location decisions, and their contribution to communities where they locate, based on quantitative and qualitative evidence."--BOOK JACKET.
