Background Information
For the first time, the Regional Studies Association annual conference is being held outside Europe and is being organised with our partner, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, around the theme of 'Sustaining Regional Future'.
Papers on governance, city-regions, spatial planning and analysis which may look at the position in China but which
may focus elsewhere are most welcome. Debate and discussion, contrast and comparisons are essential to the
success of Regional Studies Association conferences and to academic endeavour. Critical analyses and sharing of
experiences in all these topic areas will ensure the Beijing conference achieves the aims that the Regional Studies
Association and its partners have set out for it.
