The Annals of Regional Science – The unexpected effects of policies on cities and regions<\/strong><\/p>\n

In recent years, evaluating public policies has become a key research priority. Yet while many studies focus on intended outcomes, policies often generate unexpected territorial impacts\u2014both positive and negative\u2014that reshape cities and regions in unforeseen ways.
\nThis special issue invites high-quality contributions exploring the indirect, underestimated, or unintended effects of national, regional, and local policies. We welcome rigorous theoretical or quantitative approaches that deepen our understanding of how policies influence the spatial and socio-economic fabric of territories\u2014even when they were not explicitly designed to do so.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Key questions include:
\n– What are the unexpected territorial effects of public policies (economic, social, environmental)?
\n– How can unintended consequences reinforce or contradict original policy goals?
\n– What methods and frameworks are best suited to identify these impacts?
\n– How can policymakers integrate territorial side effects into smarter policy design?
\n– What lessons can we learn from past cases where policy spillovers shaped regional outcomes?<\/div>\n
