Recently the World Bank released its World Development Report 2009 (hereafter WDR 2009) with the title ‘Reshaping Economic Geography.’ In the report, the Korean experience in regional development policy was highly praised. Also, the current government has been trying to reshape the regional development policy in view of 5+2 Economic Regions. The main theme of this paper is how to establish the highly value-adding economic system and how to deal with scale economies for regional development. In this paper these tasks in Korea’s regional policy were discussed with reference to the WDR 2009. Enhancing the density of the central city of each Economic Region, reducing the economic distance between cities and rural areas, and getting rid of the barriers to cooperation between provinces are the keys for the efficiency and the effectiveness of the regional policy. In addition, strengthening the national solidarity through collaborative development of 5+2 Economic Regions still remains as one of the major tasks of the Korean government.
Abstract
Recently the World Bank released its World Development Report 2009 (hereafter WDR 2009) with the title ‘Reshaping Economic Geography.’ In the report, the Korean experience in regional development policy was highly praised. Also, the current government has been trying to reshape the regional development policy in view of 5+2 Economic Regions. The main theme of this paper is how to establish the highly value-adding economic system and how to deal with scale economies for regional development. In this paper these tasks in Korea’s regional policy were discussed with reference to the WDR 2009. Enhancing the density of the central city of each Economic Region, reducing the economic distance between cities and rural areas, and getting rid of the barriers to cooperation between provinces are the keys for the efficiency and the effectiveness of the regional policy. In addition, strengthening the national solidarity through collaborative development of 5+2 Economic Regions still remains as one of the major tasks of the Korean government.
