Territorial cohesion as a vehicle of sustainability
While territorial cohesion remains a rather blurred policy concept in the European Union (EU), it constitutes one of the primary vehicles of delivering an EU-defined sustainability. This paper aims at exposing some of the possibilities and limitations of this policy approach. In the first part we discuss the general aims underlying territorial cohesion that, next to the objectives of economic and social cohesion, became one of the central objectives of the Lisbon Treaty in 2007. It is said that globalisation and EU integration generated "asymmetric shocks, territorial marginalization, and relocation of businesses" (Robert, 2007, p. 26), and the principle of territorial cohesion should help in correcting these problems, primarily through financial support.
