Question 15

4 Challenged of neo-endogenous development

Answer 15

(Parra): Territorial mosaic can occur. Lack of management, disagreements in areas, and also local response and protest, e.g. about the development of a tourism resort
Bosworth: says this can occur due to difference between gov boundaries and locally identified spaces
2. Uncritical adoption: no consensus on how multi-level governance should be organized. Could lead to spatially blind policy interventions if interventions not organized correctly
3. Elite capture - unequal power. Rhetoric of partnership creation but small elite end up taking decisions. Someone still needs to decide which locals have a voice, but who?
4. Experience differences: Locals often don’t know about governance, or the experience for bottom up development. When top says ok do your own thing, some places will fail to do so as they don’t know how. Some places will adapt better than others to this change
