The region is dead! long live the region!
The complexity of contemporary regional restructuring is not always apparent. It is the purpose of this paper to argue that while in the short term there is a clear geographical fragmentation of the American regional structure of the 1970s, a theoretical and historical perspective would suggest the reconstitution of regions at a higher scale. In the political sphere, there is a parallel sectionalism but this may be short lived. It is important in this period of growing global crisis co avoid a localist perspective on geo-political and geo-economic change.
