This manual pertains to "Impacts of European Territorial Policies in the Baltic States," a publication edited by Garri Raagmaa and Dominic Stead. Published on October 2, 2017, this work delves into urban and regional development within the Baltic States since their re-independence in the 1990s. It offers a comprehensive overview and analysis of the Europeanization of spatial planning, examining key themes such as European cohesion and structural policy, spatial planning institutions, and policy convergence. The publication provides insights into national and European pressures for reform, comparing the Baltic States with other European countries.
This manual serves as an in-depth resource for understanding the complex interplay of territorial policies in the Baltic region. It is structured to provide a thorough examination of the historical and cultural context of spatial development, the processes of Europeanization in spatial planning, and the analysis of policy convergence. The content is presented in English and is available, comprising 160 pages. This publication is intended for those interested in regional development, European planning studies, and the architectural and planning aspects of governance in the Baltic States.
Urban and regional development in the Baltic States and other Central and Eastern European countries has experienced rapid changes since their re-independence at the beginning of the 1990s. Meanwhile, urban and regional planning institutions and organizational cultures in the Baltic States have only changed rather incrementally, despite various national and European pressures for reform. As a consequence, the effects of European cohesion and structural policy measures have been quite modest, and the ability of the planning systems in the Baltic states to manage contemporary trends in urban and regional development has become increasingly limited. This book focuses on these issues and tensions of spatial planning and development in the Baltic States and their distinctiveness compared to other European countries. It provides an overview of the historical and cultural context of spatial development, a discussion of the processes of Europeanization of spatial planning in the specific context of the Baltic States, and an analysis of whether these processes may be leading to policy convergence in the region.
This book was published as a special issue of European Planning Studies.
