Journal of Urban and Regional Analysis
Urban and regional questions are crucial in understanding the present territorial conditions. Urban territories are under rapid change while within regions the ‘old questions’ of regional economic disparity and uneven development are being given a new twist as economic globalization impacts the national and local arenas.
JURA, the Journal of Urban and Regional Analysis, working as an Open-access journal (with two issues/year, in June and December), was launched as a response to the exciting world of urban and regional research emerging in reaction to these changes happening in the real world.
JURA represents the initiative of the Interdisciplinary Center for Advanced Research on Territorial Dynamics (CICADIT) at the University of Bucharest working in collaboration with Ronan Paddison at the University of Glasgow. While the intention is that articles published by JURA will draw on examples throughout the world, particular emphasis will be given to urban and regional change as it is being experienced in Eastern Europe.
