Although monetary policy is designed to be neutral, the book argues that it can have uneven regional impacts. By amplifying the divide between already developed areas and those still catching up, such policies may undermine their own effectiveness. This self-reinforcing cycle is significantly shaped by the behavior of local banks' liquidity preferences, risk perceptions, and lending strategies, which can either connect or disconnect national policy goals from inclusive regional development.
Drawing on macroregional data, quantitative models, field surveys, and interviews with local officials and bankers, the book offers compelling insights into one of the central challenges of economic policymaking in a diverse and decentralized nation. It also presents a powerful critique of the “spatial blindness” often embedded in economic governance.
