Innovative, evolutionary economic policy in the regions

Author

  • Uwe Jens

Abstract

Neo-classical economics, in the opinion of Dr Uwe Jens, Member of the German Bundestag, has not dealt sufficiently with the development of areas and regions. The decisive factor for the shipment of goods beyond the close confines of a region is the amount of transport costs. New studies on regional economic development point to other factors, however, that can be allocated to evolutionary economic theory and that are significant for regional development and much closer to reality.
