Policy Review Section
In this issue of the Policy Review Section, Ivan Turok of the Centre for Planning, University of Strathclyde, examines the need to integrate regional planning with South Africa's new Reconstruction and Development Programme (see Etienne Nel, Regional Studies 28(6)). Based on an analysis of the interim planning schemes of the Regional Services Councils of Pretoria–Witwatersrand–Vaal Province, Turok argues that they have laid some of the groundwork. However, he concludes that there should be a more flexible and participatory process of planning and a fuller understanding of the social and economic implications of urban change. In the second article, Kevin Bishop, Adrian Phillips and Lynda Warren of the University of Wales College of Cardiff review the complex and often confusing system of protected areas which has been central to the British approach to conservation. They examine the issues which are beginning to prompt new thinking on the role and evolution of protected areas, outlining how factors such as global environmental change and the internationalization of environmental policy influence policy and practice. In the third article, Richard Minns of the Political Economy Research Centre, University of Sheffield, and John Tomaney of the Centre for Urban and Regional Development Studies, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, drawing on a review of the German Federal system, consider the advantages and limits of regional government as a means of achieving more spatially balanced economic development. They argue that, given the scale of inequalities in the UK, it is not sufficient to rely on a process of increased regional expenditure and political decentralization without addressing the results of the concentration of economic power in the South East. Finally, Martin Perry of the Department of Geography, National University of Singapore, examines the issue of how business networking can be stimulated in less favoured regions. The article focuses on the impact of joint action groups (JAGs) established to encourage organizational co-operation in export market development.
