The article discusses the evolution of regional planning and development theories over time. It identifies four main phases: resource-based approaches, welfare regionalism, competitive entrepreneurial regionalism, and the contemporary new regionalism. The focus is on how these theories have shaped regional planning and development practices. The key finding is that regions and regionalism are now more important than ever in global, national, and urban politics, as well as in social, economic, and political theory.
