Beschreibung
Balanced regional development aims at economic development of a region along with creation of gainful employment. As economic development takes place, a shift in structure of the economy and employment is experienced resulting into restructuring of employment generation capacities of the economic sectors. However, it is observed that although the sectoral approach of planning does assist in the development of the particular sectors, it does not necessarily lead to the balanced regional development. Therefore this book pertains to the assessment of the influence of various sectors of the economy for balanced development of a region in India. The authors have made efforts to develop appropriate policy interventions for balanced regional development through analysis of employment generation capacity of various sectors of economy vis a vis the demand for employment in the region. System concept and system dynamics modeling was followed for the development of simulated scenarios for policy analyses. The authors believed that the integrated sectoral planning approach of development presented here through application of systems concept could bring about balanced regional development.
