This book examines the resurgence in Australia of locality-based social
policy (concerned with the spatial dimensions of disadvantage), after the
political failures of the market oriented approach to regional reform. The book proposes that these trends are leading to a new ‘post-competition’ policy regime in Australia that mirrors global policy trends.
