Agreements agreements and partnerships have become important ways of working for regional and urban development. Agreement especially between cities and the state is becoming more established but at the same time it is still looking for its form.A recent report provides ingredients for the development of contract thinking starting with conceptual structuring and useful foreign peer examples ending with practical recommendations. At the same time it raises the issue of contractual aspects of other regional and urban development instruments.The places and themes where contraction fits should be better identified according to the report. The most important of the reports findings raises the question of whether agreements are perceived as a special means or as a key mainstream tool in regional development as well.Agreements or agreements as a development tool between cities and the state are used for example in land use housing and transport issues in accelerating innovation activities and most recently also in regional development discussions between counties and the state.
