Uneven Regional Change in Britain

by Alan R. Townsend

This text provides an introduction to regional variation in Britain in the 1990s. The author uses studies of various countries to demonstrate the tendency toward regional variations in prosperity. These studies are integrated with a summary of British industrial location history including evidence from individual firms. The text examines the impact of recession in the 1930s and the 1980s and the widening of the 'north–south' divide. It is suitable for 'A' level, introductory undergraduate and college courses.
