  • Europe of the Regions'? Visions and Reality from a Critical Perspective

    Europe of the Regions'? Visions and Reality from a Critical Perspective

    Published in Regional Politics and Policy, 4, 2, 1-27 (1994) Towards a `Europe of the Regions'? Visions and Reality from a Critical Perspective Susana Borrás-Alomar, Thomas Christiansen and Andrés Rodríguez-Pose European University Institute, Florence Abstract During the past few years, the post-war discourse of a `Europe of the Regions' has received renewed attention. The article discusses the original concept in relation to political and economic developments in the European Community during the past two decades, concentrating especially on the areas of regional participation in EC decision-making, inter-regional cooperation and regional economic development. The authors conclude that while some advances have been made, the overall picture remains dominated by the influence of national level (f)actors. Consequently, the often anticipated drive towards the `Europe of the Regions' does not really connect with actual developments. Notes about the Contributors Susana Borras-Alomar is a researcher at the European University Institute in Florence and is currently working on a project on `Regions and Technology in Europe' Thomas Christiansen is a researcher at the European University Institute in Florence and is engaged in research on `Regions in the European Community - A Framework for Analysis'. He has previously published, in German Politics, on `The German Länder in the European Community'. Andrés Rodríguez-Pose is a researcher at the European University Institute in Florence. His research is on `The sociopolitical bases of regional growth in Western Europe'. He has previously published the article `A la recherche d'un syndicat européen. L'attitude des syndicats britanniques, espagnols et italiens à l'égard de l'intégration européenne' together with Francesco Meggiolaro and Andrew Tarrant, 1992, Documment de Travail de l'Institut d'Etudes Européenes de l'Université Libre de Bruxelles, D.T.

    Four Regions for a Strong Europe

    WHAT ARE THE FOUR MOTORS? THE FOUR MOTORS ARE ONE OF THE OLDEST PARTNERSHIPS IN EUROPE In the founding year 1988, the goals of collaboration were primarily related to economics and research, as well as to art and culture. Today, our cooperation encompasses the collaboration of country women to improve income conditions in rural areas, student and youth projects and climate protection. The fact that the presidency changes every year gives the network a vibrancy that is reflected in its contents. FOUR MOTORS FOR EUROPE FOUR REGIONS FOR A STRONG EUROPE FOUR STRONG REGIONS IN EUROPE • The Four Motors for Europe produce goods and services amounting to more than 1.3 trillion Euros a year, which is equivalent to just under 9 % of the EU’s economic output. • More than one in ten employees engaged in research and development in Europe works within the Four Motors. Jointly, the Four Motors for Europe seek to further BADEN-WÜRTTEMBERG – develop their top position as dynamic regions in EUROPE’S NO. 1 LAND OF INVENTORS Europe and to take a leadership role with innovative solutions for topics concerning the future.

This makes our region unique in Europe. GERMANY - • Baden-Württemberg is an area with a strong industrial base: en BADEN-WÜRTTEMBERG gineering, the automotive industry and life sciences.
