Abstract

In the last few years, a great upheaval has shaken existing organisation structures at a regional level.1 For a variety of reasons, organisations have been set up in which regional actors from politics, administration, economy and sometimes also from civil society work together. To make a distinction between the existing hierarchical administrative structures and these new intermediary organisation forms, usually the notion of a regional governance system is applied (Fürst 2010). A feature that is inherent in this regional governance system is the often problematic treatment of the different rationalities of actors coming from different systemic backgrounds. This chapter will home in on the problem of multiple rationalities in regional development, and show approaches to dealing with this situation in a positive manner.
