As a consequence of the global crisis, a major shift to the new growth model is under way in the world economy.

The resulting adjustment calls for more flexible regulatory rules and social institutions, while growth-friendly economic policies at subnational level are expected to complement (and sometimes substitute for) more traditional national policies.
