This paper reviews a range of evidence, which considers the academic literature, technical reports and case studies on regional development. It proposes a theoretical synthesis that considers three lines of interpretation about regional development: the first focuses on the functioning of institutions; the second focuses on the mechanisms of political representation of regional actors; and the third studies the processes of circulation of resources. These three lines of interpretation seek to address the problems of governance and coordination between actors involved in the process of regional development.
