Aspatial peripherality, innovation and the rural economy

Objective

Spatial Peripherally (Asp) is a term describing a range of processes, which increasingly compound or distort the effects of physical remoteness. Distanceconstraints on regional economic and social development are diminishing, yet the benefits may be either enhanced or masked by a range of essentially non-geographic processes. These include the utilisation of information society technology, and the density and efficiency of networks linking local business, development agencies and global sources of information or markets. Aspects of social capital, and the character of regional governance also play a role in determining the degree of effective isolation from the "motor regions" at the heart of Europe. This project will systematically explore the economic and social processes, which cause Asp, develop methodologies for measuring it, and create effective tools whereby policy makers and the business community may seek to minimise its impact.
