- catalog abstract "Rapid population growth, demand for increased food resources and political, economic and social stresses have all contributed to building up pressure for development of marginal regions in both developed and developing countries. Ecological issues are also adding up to and increasing marginalization of regions and social groups due to the pressure on natural resources. Broadly speaking marginal regions are perceived in concepts of centre-periphery (fringes) and boundaries and frontiers. In developing countries the marginal regions are the combined effects of ecological, economic and social factors. For understanding the above complex issues, the Study Groups on Development Issues in Marginal Regions identified the major concerns: (1) to enhance the understanding of spatially bound development processes and issues and (2) to compare human and resource management approaches in different marginal areas of the world in order to provide the basis for the evolution of strategies and policies resulting in sustainable socio-economic regional development.".
