Vertailuanalyysi suurten kaupunkiseutujen elinvoimasta 2000 2012TimoAro
Vertailuanalyysi perustuu suurten kaupunkiseutujen muutoksen ja kehityksen osoittamiseen vuosina 2000-2012. Suurten kaupunkiseutujen (13) kehitystä 2000-luvun aikanaverrataan 10 kehitystä kuvaavan muuttujan avulla. Kaupunkiseutuja verrataan toisiinsa eri muuttujien kohdalla muutos- ja kasvuprosentin avulla. Tavoitteena on tunnistaa ne kaupunkiseudut, joissa muutos on ollut suurin 2000-luvun aikana.
Yksi aluerakenteen isoista muutosvoimista liittyy demografiseen muutospaineeseen eli väestön ikärakenteen muutokseen. Työikäisen väestön määrä vähenee samanaikaisesti kuin koko väestön määrä kasvaa. Alueiden välillä on kasvavia eroja väestöllisessä ja taloudellisessa huoltosuhteessa, jotka vaikuttavat joko myönteisesti tai kielteisesti alueiden tulevaan kehitykseen.

God's Word says that the church is the fulness of Christ who fills everything in every way (Ephesians 1:23). We take that to mean that the church is to fill all of culture with the knowledge and glory of God in obedience to Christ. The church has a part to play in the redemptive, restorative work of Christ in the world (Col 1:19-20) and that includes redeeming business.
