Project Description

Summary:  View help for Summary Spatial disparities in income levels and worklessness across the metropolitan areas of the European Union are profound and persistent. We analyze disparities across metropolitan regions in Europe and discuss a rich set of theories and empirical evidence that help us understand the factors driving these disparities. Europe has a long-standing tradition of using place-based policies to reduce economic disparities. We review the evidence and discuss the effects of different types of policies.
