Abstract
This research engages in a critical discussion of regional policies in the context of fundamental shifts in the spatial relationships between places and workplaces following the COVID-19 crisis. Focusing on the case of major advanced economies to illustrate its arguments, the analysis starts from a review of the heterogeneous dynamics defined by multiple regional transitions in a context of polycrisis. Then, it assesses opportunities and challenges for tackling regional imbalances and re-building resiliently and sustainably by combining insights on the shifting nature in the spatiality of workplaces with a holistic perspective on cross-domain policy intervention(s) bridging regional industrial, skills, and social policies.
