Key Features of Regional Planning
The Art of Planning, 1985
Regional planning has developed along pragmatic lines with relatively little attention to formal theory. It may be premature to expect a fully developed theory in a young and highly disparate field, but it does seem possible to generalize about the common features of regional planning as it has evolved in various countries around the world. Such generalization is not only suggestive of areas for further study but offers the possibility of illuminating a path through the confusing reality with which we must deal. The emphasis here is on problems of broad-scale regional planning, including both urban and rural activities, in developing situations.
SPATIAL MANAGEMENT OF THE REGIONS -THEORITICAL AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS
SPATIAL MANAGEMENT OF THE REGIONS -THEORITICAL AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS, 2021
The world and world economy have changed after COVID-19 crisis. The development of regions varies according to the local conditions of territory. In other hand the world is very fragmented and regionalized. This fact comes to explain to us that the researchers must initiate more interdisciplinary studies and research. The economist's analysis show that the scientists need more complex tools for their research areas. This obstacle is important in context of regional development science, regional approaches and managing regional development. The purpose of this research is to provide theoretical framework and dimensions of regions' management. In achieving this goal the author uses system, territorial, geographical and economic approaches, and descriptive, prescriptive, comparison, expert opinion methods.
Regional development planning and disparity in Bangladesh
E3 JOURNAL OF BUSINESS MANAGEMENT AND ECONOMICS, 2021
This study sheds some light on the regional development planning and regional disparity in Bangladesh and also analyzes spatial disparity of development through several factors to picturize the poverty situation in different regions of the country. In fact, this paper tries to represent the scenario of planning in micro-regional level. Findings from the paper reveal that, some regions of Bangladesh are still underdeveloped because of the fact that they continuously receive marginal share of public expenditure and national budget of the country. Gini Index for the total budget shows an incompatible level of income inequality to the people across various regions in Bangladesh. Northern and West regions of the country are mostly deprived of proper development planning and allocation of efficient budget. Overall, this article deeply provides a briefing for field people involved in regional planning processes in the rural areas. Bangladesh is yet to decentralize empirical power to the lo...

Agricultural productivity of the Bangladesh are not equal all districts, some are in very in worse condition. This creates a dependency tendency for the low productive districts To identify the low productive districts for their agricultural development plan it is necessary to identify them through agricultural regionalization. The purpose of this study is to make agricultural regionalization of the 64 districts of the Bangladesh based on agricultural productivity and lists out probable hindrance causing low productivity. Productivity index was used as a parameter of agricultural productivity. Moran-I concept has been used to identify spatial dependencies between different regions. Scatter plot and Percentile value has been used to identify the outlier districts with extremely low and high productivity. The study has divided the whole country into four regions which will be helpful for taking policy for the agricultural development on basis their production level. From the analysis of degree of agricultural productivity dependencies between districts can be helpful for setting up agricultural development priority. The study also suggests possible initiatives for agricultural development on the basis of the study.
Spatial Planning: A Prerequisite for Sustainable Development of Bangladesh
Among nations with populations above 100 million, Bangladesh is the most densely populated country. It is located on the most active delta in the world and quite vulnerable to natural calamities. Despite tremendous growth over the last three decades in the service, industrial and remittance sector, agriculture remains the largest single source of the GDP and employment. It also provides the nation with food security, a crucial component of sustainability. Over the past three decades unplanned urbanization and industrialization has adversely affected ecologically critical areas such as wetlands, rivers and forest ecosystems. Natural hydrology has been affected by increased extraction of groundwater and surface water for irrigation, coupled with flood control measures in the upper riparian and lower riparian regions. In this context, spatial planning could be considered as a useful tool to foster sustainable development of the country. Therefore, this paper recommends spatial planning as a tool for the sustainable development of Bangladesh considering the demographic trends, economy, geographic context and existing policy of land use and urban planning.

Despite several local revenue sources, Union Parishads (Councils) in Bangladesh are yet to perform optimal local revenue mobilisation. This paper evaluates Unions revenue trend and performance, budget and planning practices, effect of central grants on local revenue in the backdrop of central government recent initiative for Unions capacity building. Analysis includes three representative Unions, in a comparative perspective, and uses secondary and primary data (from Parishad functionaries, local citizen, government officials and national experts). Findings show that open budget discussion, discretionary and performance grants have positive impact on local revenue collection while this study raises question about sustainability of the revenue augmentation due to disparity of deconcentrated allocations system and feeble local democratic governance. Study recommends making adjustments in local revenue shares, increase discretionary grants, and validation of local participatory governa...

Bangladesh is a populous country in the world. Nowadays, urbanization takes the form of rapid growth of urban population. As a result, population density is being increased that influences average household size. This paper attempts to understand the key issues related to the population distribution. The purpose of the study is delineation of the formal region based on the population density, growth rate and average household size in context of sixty four districts of Bangladesh. The data are collected from Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS), 2011. It analyzes the status of the regions which are fixed by Composite Index method. Among three classification methods, Mean-SD method is used to classify the region. Because, more symmetrical shape of histogram of normal distribution is found in Mean-SD method. It arranges the distribution of population within the 64 districts from high populated to low populated region which represents the actual population scenario of Bangladesh such as Dhaka, Narayanganj are high populated and Rangamati, Khagrachari, Barguna, Pirojpur are in the low populated region. This study gives a scope for future development of region and will be helpful for provision of facilities according to the ranking.
Regionalization of India for Planning
Regionalization is the process of delineating regions, but each time depending upon the purpose for which the region is to be delineated. If the intention is to develop an arid region, the 'region' will be differently defined, including only arid areas. If the congestion is to be removed, then the most congested and polluted areas will be included in the 'congested region'. If the intention is substantially reducing poverty and unemployment, then a 'depressed region' is to be delineated. The homogeneity of a region will differ with the purpose for which delineation is being made. According to Groenman, "Regionalization deals with the differentiation of political measures in space". If the physical region, having homogeneity, is an administrative region also, then all tasks of regional and national planning can be facilitated. Geographers were always interested in the process of regionalization and were very fond of pictorial characterization rather than scientific explanation. They probably meant that what is physically impossible, money cannot make it possible. However, 'deterministic' situations are not too many and the man and his brain child technology can bring a lot of changes. The neodeterminism underlies the fact that as the techno-economic conditions change, the 'degree determinism' also undergoes a change to be near the reality, we need adjustments by stages. Infect both 'determinism' and possibilism' are facts of life.

In this paper, the peculiarities of type I multipliers and elasticities and their differences on the generated results for the proposed developmental priorities are examined. Moreover the influences of the used non-survey techniques (Simple Location Quotient, Cross Industry Location Quotient and Flegg's Location Quotient) among the sectoral rankings from the type I multipliers and elasticities are scrutinized. For the target of the paper, the economy of Western Macedonia region in Greece has been used as an example for the secondary simulation. The results show that the type I multipliers and elasticities are not end up to same sectoral rankings due to their different definition and are not the same suitable indicators for short-term and long-term developmental planning. Nevertheless, their coexistence could improve the economic prosperity both on short and long period of time. As for the used location quotient, the FLQ technique improves the proximity of the sectoral rankings that are generated from all the used indicators and also reduces the magnitudes of type I multipliers and elasticities.
