This book offers cross-national evidence of the effectiveness of financial and physical incentives for regional development. It challenges the traditional wisdom that competition is harmful for regional development or can be zero-sum.

Do tax and infrastructure incentives have any effect on the unemployment rate of areas adopting them?
