Regional based development is an important issue to Indonesia as an archipelago country. One of the alternative to this issue is tourism development, theoretically tourism-dependent economy expectedly has positive impact to the economy. Regional development based on tourism expectedly can be more progressive if supported by tourism special economic zones. Therefore, the availability and appropriateness of the infrastructure must be examined. The aim of this research is to map tourism infrastructure condition in Indonesia, identify the obstacles of tourism infrastructure development, and analyze supporting infrastructure for inclusive and competitive tourism economic zones. The results show that there are still different definitions for tourism that affects the policy implementation. Moreover, there is still gap between infrastructure availability and needs in the tourism development, especially in tourism economic zones. Otherwise, community in the tourism economic zones surrounding areas have relatively strong social capital to support tourism. This condition should be the other supporting factors besides proper infrastructure and governance.

South African economy comprises of a narrow range of exports and an over-dependence on the primary production. These challenges hindered the growth and development of the country as well as the continent. One of the ways to enhance growth and development is through the improvement of economic complexity which measures productive capabilities of sophisticated products that countries export. The study seeks to find the role of investing in infrastructure development has on economic complexity using South African data. The autoregressive distributive lag approach was employed using yearly data spanning from 1960 to 2018. Results indicate that investing in government economic infrastructure has a negative and robust impact on economic complexity. Investment on government social infrastructure and public corporations’ infrastructure can positively influence economic complexity. It can be recommended that there should be policies to support industrial development that targeted incentivising economic infrastructure development. The development should prioritize specific geographical areas such as special economic zones to improve the lives of citizens, boost the economy, attract foreign direct investment and create jobs.

ABSTRACTBogor District as one of large region and large number of population has any problems related to accesibility and equity welfare.  Regional proliferation considered as a way to overcome that problems.  The study used scoring method based on PP no. 78 2007 with descriptive analysis, location quotient analysis, and Klassen Tiphology. This study was aimed to analyzed feasibility of regional proliferation and to formulate regional development strategy based on economic potentials in eastern Bogor District region. In general the result showed that eastern Bogor District region appropriate to organize as an autonomous region.  High economic potential and fiscal cappacity of eastern Bogor region can be made as main factor to recommended eastern Bogor District region as an autonomous region.  Thus, the selected strategies are how to develop backward regions base on leading sector, support primary sector development such as agricultural. Goverment policy is important to optimize natural resources management, spread out infrastructure development mainly to support rural area development. The implication of policy directed base on each region characters such as social, culture, spatial, basic sector.   Furthermore regional development analysis can be set base on sub-district region.

This paper examines the extent to which economic changes in Wales during the 1980s and early 1990s have impacted upon the main indicator of regional prosperity (GDP per head). The paper shows that the economic "successes" of Wales, in terms of inward investment attraction, infrastructure development and manufacturing growth, are yet to be translated into sustained improvements in relative GDP per capita. The general implications of the Welsh case for regional development strategy are examined in the conclusions.

The value co-creation behavior of residents can contribute to the sustainable development of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) tourism. This paper aims to provide a theoretical framework that uses “cognition–affection–behavior” theory to explain how the two variables of tourism development perception and emotional solidarity affect the value co-creation participation behavior of the local residents in the context of intangible cultural heritage tourism while considering the mediating role of emotional solidarity. This study empirically investigates Meizhou Island in Fujian Province, China as an example by using a structural equation model (SEM). Results show that the perception of local residents toward the benefits of tourism development has a significant positive impact on their emotional solidarity and value co-creation participation behavior, whereas their perception toward the costs of tourism development has a significant negative impact. In addition, the emotional solidarity of these residents has a significant positive impact on their value co-creation participation and plays a mediating role in the relationship between the tourism development perceptions of local residents and their value co-creation participation behavior. This study has important theoretical and practical significance for the management of ICH tourist destinations.

The relevance of this study is determined by the need to improve the tools for developing strategies for the development of territorial socio-economic systems, taking into account the realities of the current stage of development. Among these realities are the formation of the economic space of the region and the limited resources for development, which determined the logic, goal and objectives of this study. The purpose of this study is to develop theoretical, methodological and practical recommendations for the formation of a regional development strategy taking into account the spatial component. To achieve this goal, the following tasks were formulated and solved: clarification of the essence and content of the category "economic space" as the basis for accounting for this category in strategic developments; identification of the features of regional development, taking into account the spatial component; development of principles and prerequisites for regional strategy taking into account the spatial component of development; formation of a scheme for accounting for the spatial component in the development of strategies for multi-level territorial entities; development and testing of a modified model of resource provision for territorial development strategies as an updated toolkit for regional strategy. The novelty of the results of this study lies in the development of theoretical, methodological and practical recommendations for using the spatial component in the formation of a regional development strategy, which, unlike existing developments, allow taking into account the properties and characteristics of economic space when developing a block for the distribution of territorial resources and thereby provide conditions for increasing the resulting parameters multilevel territorial entities and the region as a whole.
