Recenzje

The wealth of analysis and empirical findings contained in the book make for an exceptionally rich view of the EU's economic development ... Readers looking for an extensive treatment of the success or otherwise of policies aimed at reducing both regional disparities and the backwardness of the least favoured regions will find their fill; but there is also much other knowledge to be garnered on a wider front ... this is a collaborative work of patently high quality.
