 | SHORT DESCRIPTION | | | The study of DIAMONT WP6 aimed at getting a general idea of the most relevant issues influencing the current and future development of the Alpine regions. Experts from all alpine countries were invited to participate in a Delphi survey. They expressed their opinions on challenges, problems or chances existing or maybe arising in the future, and highlighted a wide variety of topics which were summarized in eight main trends, as for example agglomeration processes in favourable areas on the one hand and further marginalization of rural peripheral areas on the other hand. Assuming that these main trends could be handled by a limited number of phenomena revealing their possible developments, a further issue was to select phenomena that could inform on relevant aspects of the respective issue. These results pave the way for the determination of suitable development indicators and led to the selection of a specific spatial development trend, namely urban centres and fringes between cooperation and competition, which will be examined in detail in course of DIAMONT project. |
