Reviews

'...the themes alluded to in the title of this volume are of substantial academic and practical interest.' European Urban and Regional Studies '...the editors manage to bridge the gap between the scientific and the real world...In my opinion, anyone interested in cross-border region-building can benefit from this publication. Learning from these cases is easy and can help us find the right direction for the future.' Journal of Economic and Social Geography '...this book is well worth reading...a book able to give structured ideas of the cement , the actors and processes on the local and regional level doing their important share in the build-up of functional multinational entities in the North, is highly welcome.' European Review
