Ontology Jess Browning

This book on ontology was written to construct a foundation for ordering what can be known and understood in considering socioeconomic conditions (both real and abstract) over time and space. It provides the setting for elucidating the processes taking place within and between regions. It provides a way of conceptualizing time and space in a regional context and to illuminating socio-economic conditions. Its purpose is not to offer prescriptions about what should be done to correct regional problems, but to offer conceptual ways in which economic theorists and policy practitioners can examine and perhaps better explain the processes that take place within and across regions.
