Abstract

Fellow's Address: Regional science and ecological economics are complementary disciplines offering challenging opportunities for mutual enrichment, since most regions face environmental problems, and since all environmental problems are characterized by often-neglected site-specific spatial aspects. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate that view with an example of a specific region and to consider its relevance to a wider range of emerging regional environmental issues, such as the globalization of international trade, the issue of managed regional growth, and the regional significance of the sustainability concept.
