Abstract
The emphasis placed on growth as the objective of economic policy since World War II is conspicuous not only at the national and international level but also so far as the more limited regional unit is concerned. This increased desire for a more intensive exploitation of territorial resources is the result partly of a new and unprecedentedly widespread ‘growth consciousness’, and partly of the greater need for regional planning in rapidly changing economic and social conditions. Not unnaturally, interest has also grown in the problems of territorial development and in research into regional growth.
