The last 20 years have seen a dramatic decline in world economic growth. From socialist states to developing nations, every type of government has had to deal with substantial industrial change. In this work, experts discuss ten countries from all the major regions of the world. These are: China, USSR, Japan, South Korea, Brazil, New Zealand, Australia, Sweden, UK and South Africa. Each chapter examines how every type and level of government - from local to supranational - responds to and manages these industrial changes. This is not a study restricted to traditional manufacturing industries - it includes land based economics and how they must be balanced with environmental issues. Finally, the book examines hoe indirect action by the state influences the geography of industrial change.
