"Why do some places grow while others are shrinking? What are the most important driving forces behind increases in the number of inhabitants and jobs? How can places affect their own growth? This book is written for those who want to understand how structural forces affect the development of their locale and how one can create growth through increased attractiveness. Most Norwegian municipalities, cities, regions and counties try to stimulate growth and development in their localities. They want growth in the population and more jobs. This book describes the main features of regional development in Norway since 2000. Telemark Research Institute has proposed a new model, the attractiveness model, to explain the growth and development of places. This book explains how this model works, how it is constructed and how it can be used to understand the forces behind regional development." "Hvorfor vokser noen steder, mens andre krymper? Hva er de viktigste drivkreftene bak steders utvikling? Og hvordan kan steder påvirke sin egen vekst? Denne boka er skrevet for de som ønsker å forstå hvordan de strukturelle kreftene påvirker utviklingen på sitt sted og hvordan en kan skape vekst gjennom økt attraktivitet. De fleste norske kommuner, byer, regioner og fylker forsøker å stimulere vekst og utvikling på sitt sted. De ønsker vekst i folketallet og flere arbeidsplasser. I denne boka beskrives hovedtrekkene i den regionale utviklingen i Norge siden 2000. Gjennom mange års arbeid har Telemarksforsking utviklet en ny modell, attraktivitetsmodellen, for å forklare steders vekst og utvikling.Attraktivitetsmodellen avdekker de viktigste strukturelle drivkreftene for vekst i befolkning og arbeidsplasser, og åpner samtidig for at steder kan påvirke sin egen utvikling gjennom å bli attraktive for bosetting, bedrifter og besøk. Attraktive steder vokser mer enn forventet ut fra de strukturelle kreftene som påvirker stedet utenfra. De innsikter som attraktivitetsmodellen gir om hvordan ulike strukturelle krefter og steders attraktivitet påvirker utviklingen kan også brukes til å lage scenarioer over fremtidig utvikling. Hvor mye kan et sted påvirke sin vekst hvis det er attraktivt? Hva som gjør et sted attraktivt varierer fra sted til sted, mellom ulike tidsepoker og er alltid avhengig av hva andre steder gjør samtidig. Det finnes derfor ingen enkel og konkret oppskrift for hvordan et sted kan bli attraktivt. Det finnes imidlertid noen steder som har oppnådd høy attraktivitet. Slike eksempler kan vi lære av, selv om oppskriften ikke kan kopieres direkte."

The celebration of the 50th anniversary of regional policy in Slovenia and the 30th anniversary of the country's independence is an opportunity to assess the efforts made so far in promoting regional development as well as to look to the future. In the book, we look at the path taken, describe the system of promoting regional development in the past, and point to the success of regional policy in eliminating interregional disparities. We present the role of regional development agencies and regional spatial planning in regional development and the quality of life in border problem areas from the perspective of the people living there. In the final part, we focus on future development. We point out the role of digitalisation and demographic change and try to shed light on future developments also from a philosophical perspective. Demographic, climate, economic and social changes require new approaches, fresh ideas and, above all, a systematic identification of development guidelines, ideas, development opportunities and factors that, taken together, can lead to a more balanced development of the country in all areas. Harmonious development is everyone's responsibility, but we can only achieve it together. Praznovanje 50. obletnice regionalne politike v Sloveniji in 30. obletnice neodvisnosti države je priložnost za oceno dosedanjih naporov pri spodbujanju regionalnega razvoja kot tudi za pogled v prihodnost. V knjigi se oziramo na prehojeno pot, opisujemo sistem spodbujanja regionalnega razvoja v preteklosti in kažemo na uspešnost regionalne politike pri odpravljanju medregionalnih razlik. Predstavljamo vlogo regionalnih razvojnih agencij in regionalnega prostorskega načrtovanja v regionalnem razvoju ter kakovost življenja v obmejnih problemskih območjih, kot jo dojemajo tam živeči prebivalci. V sklepnem delu se posvečamo prihodnjemu razvoju. Opozarjamo na vlogo digitalizacije in demografske spremembe, prihodnji razvoj pa skušamo osvetliti tudi s filozofske perspektive. Demografske, podnebne, gospodarske in družbene spremembe zahtevajo nove pristope, sveže ideje, predvsem pa sistematičnost v prepoznavanju razvojnih smernic, idej, razvojnih priložnosti in dejavnikov, ki bodo ob skupnem delovanju lahko vodili v bolj uravnotežen razvoj države na vseh področjih. Pri tem je skladen razvoj odgovornost vseh, dosežemo pa ga lahko le skupaj.

The book Nove razvojne perspektive ('New development prospects') discusses various aspects of Slovenia’s development, focusing on general topics of regional and rural development. With regard to rural development, the following four strongly interconnected topics are primarily highlighted: cultural heritage, tourism, (organic) farming, and the environment. The volume also include broader topics that go beyond the rural character: explaining development differences in Slovenia, regional differences in the structure of occupations as a structural factor of the Slovenian economy, the flexibility of spatial systems, and new developments in presenting geostatistical data. Future plans are also discussed—that is, preparation of strategic and program documents for the new 2014–2020 financial framework. Common bases for improving the connections between spatial and development plans at the regional level are presented in addition to the spatial development guidelines used for preparing a new version of Slovenia’s Development Strategy, and the guidelines for preparing a new generation of regional development programs. Četrta knjiga v zbirki v prvi vrsti obravnava razvoj podeželja. Med številnimi temami, ki so jih predstavili sodelujoči avtorji, še posebej izstopajo štiri: kulturna dediščina, turizem, (ekološko) kmetijstvo in okolje. Uspešni in poučni primeri razvojnih praks na podeželju imajo ne glede na področje skupno točko. To je aktivacija lokalnih skupnosti s pomočjo participativnega pristopa, bodisi na področju kulturnega turizma, socialnega podjetništva, upravljanja z vodnimi viri ali oživitve vaškega življenja. V knjigi so tudi širše teme, ki presegajo podeželski značaj: pojasnjevanje razvojnih razlik v Sloveniji, regionalne razlike v poklicni sestavi kot strukturni dejavnik slovenskega gospodarstva, vprašanje prožnosti prostorskih sistemov ter novosti na področju prikazovanja geostatistik. Zazrli smo se še v prihodnost − v pripravo strateških in programskih dokumentov za novo razvojno perspektivo 2014−2020.

Knjiga predstavlja model povezovanja prostorskega in razvojnega načrtovanja na regionalni ravni. Model smo izdelali na podlagi analize gradiv, ankete po občinah ter delavnic z naročnikoma in ključnimi deležniki. Predstavljena so izhodišča za oblikovanje modela, sam model pa predstavimo z vidika vsebin, potrebnih strokovnih podlag, strukture strateških izhodišč, procesnih vidikov načrtovanja in povezovanja, ključnih deležnikov, ter potrebnih financ in tveganj. Izdelali smo tudi priporočila za uveljavitev predlaganega modela v praksi. Ob tako zastavljenemu modelu in njegovem doslednem izvajanju v praksi se bo izboljšalo načrtovanje na regionalni ravni, pri čemer bo to upoštevalo gospodarski, socialni in prostorski vidik. S tem bosta zagotovljena trajnosten razvoj in ohranjanje prostorskih potencialov.

In Asia today, the grand ideologies of the past have lost their power over the popular imagination. Even in many of the region’s democracies, popular engagement in the political process faces profound challenges. Yet amidst this landscape of political disenchantment, groups of ordinary people across Asia are finding new ways to take control of their own lives, respond to threats to their physical and cultural survival, and build better futures. This collection of essays by prominent scholars and activists traces the rise of a quiet politics of survival from the villages of China to Japan’s Minamata and Fukushima, and from the street art of Seoul and Hong Kong to the illegal markets of North Korea. Introducing an innovative conceptual framework, New Worlds from Below shows how informal grassroots politics in Northeast Asia is generating new ideas and practices that have region-wide and global relevance.
