First published in 1988, Local Authorities and New Technologies seeks to address some of the key issues facing local government in the related areas of economic rejuvenation, new technology and European Community support. It considers what local authorities can learn from experience of technology promotion elsewhere in Western Europe, it considers which developments at European Community level are more relevant to technology promotion at the local level and discusses the role of European Community funding in the development of local initiatives in Britain. This book will be of interest to students of political science, European studies and geography.
