Abstract

Σκοπός αυτού του άρθρου είναι, με βάση εμπειρικά ευρήματα πρόσφατων μελετών, να κάνει μια επισκόπηση των χωρικών επιδράσεων της οικονομικής κρίσης στην Ελλάδα καθώς και των πολιτικών για την αντιμετώπισή της. Σύμφωνα με τα πρώτα ευρήματα των μελετών οι περιφερειακές ανισότητες στην Ελλάδα έχουν προ-κυκλικό χαρακτήρα. Το συμπέρασμα αυτό είναι σε συμφωνία με μεγάλο μέρος της επιστημονικής βιβλιογραφίας που εξετάζει τις περιφερειακές ανισότητες σε σχέση με τον οικονομικό κύκλο. Παράλληλα, η δημοσιονομική κρίση έχει οδηγήσει σε υποχώρηση της πολιτικής περιφερειακής ανάπτυξης καθώς μειώνονται οι δαπάνες δημοσίων επενδύσεων σε όλους σχεδόν τους νομούς και τις περιφέρειες της χώρας. Τo άρθρο καταλήγει με προτάσεις πολιτικής στο επίκεντρο των οποίων βρίσκεται η ανάπτυξη ‘περιφερειακού κεϋνσιανισμού’ με τη συνδρομή της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης.
