Virtual special issue on regional inequality

This virtual special issue of Spatial Economic Analysis marks the keynote lecture by Professor Sergio Rey of the University of California–Riverside at the 58th Annual Congress of the European Regional Science Association in Cork, Ireland. It draws together nine papers from previous issues of the journal that deal with regional and spatial inequalities, a central theme of regional science in general and Rey’s research in particular, thereby providing an overview of the main sources of regional and spatial inequalities both within and across countries.
