Focusing on the interplay between politics and economics, the book analyzes regional economic disparities in advanced democracies and the political conflicts they create. Through a comparative study of four declining industrial regions alongside unitary Britain and federal Germany, it highlights the significance of constitutional orders as political institutions. The author, Jeffrey Anderson, emphasizes how the territorial distribution of power affects the strategies of cooperation and conflict among various political actors, ultimately demonstrating that institutional frameworks play a crucial role in shaping responses to regional crises.
