Regional vulnerability depends on the availability of regional assets for the population, as well as the population?s ability to access those assets. Such assets include the environment, population size, community, and human capital, as well as traditional physical infrastructure. Identifying and improving these regional assets, which provide resource flows to help cope with regional disruptions?natural disasters, economic crises, or demographic changes? serves to mitigate vulnerability and build resiliency. The book pursues an interdisciplinary approach to investigating regional resilience, bringing together welfare and environmental economics, public administration, risk and disaster management, policy studies, development studies, and landscape architecture. Up-to-date case studies are provided, including recovery from the Great East Japan Earthquake in Japan, regional development for depopulation areas, and urban policy for smart cities. These studies reflect and share the latest findings on key issues, policymaking and implementation processes, and implications for evaluation methodologies?all of which are indispensable to the building of resilient regions. This book is highly recommended for researchers and practitioners seeking a fresh, interdisciplinary approach to regional and urban development. It provides a valuable reference guide to building resiliency and mitigating vulnerability, both of which are imperative to achieving sustainable regions. 410 0$aNew Frontiers in Regional Science: Asian Perspectives,$x2199-5974 ;$v35 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpace in economics 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aEconomics 606 $aEnvironmental economics 606 $aRegional/Spatial Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49000 606 $aEconomic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010 606 $aSocial Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34020 606 $aPolitical Economy/Economic Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W46000 606 $aEnvironmental Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48000 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpace in economics. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aEnvironmental economics. 615 14$aRegional/Spatial Science. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 615 24$aPolitical Economy/Economic Systems. 615 24$aEnvironmental Economics. 676 $a363.34940952090512 702 $aAsahi$b Chisato$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910350330203321 996 $aBuilding Resilient Regions$92165776 997 $aUNINA
