Abstract: 
Auf der wirtschaftspolitischen Agenda steht aktuell die Frage, wie die nationale Regionalpolitik nach dem Auslaufen des Solidarpakts II nach 2019 gestaltet werden sollte. Nun wird diskutiert, wie strukturschwache Regionen ab 2020 deutschlandweit regionalpolitisch gefördert werden können. Gerade das Handwerk leistet einen bedeutenden Beitrag zur Verbesserung der Lebensverhältnisse in solchen Regionen und sollte zukünftig in der Regionalförderung stärker berücksichtigt werden.
Abstract (Translated): 
The Joint Federal/Länder Scheme for the Improvement of Regional Economic Structures is a core instrument of German regional policy. Currently, large parts of the skilled crafts sector are not eligible for funding. However, craft enterprises play an important role for economic and social stability in less developed regions. The several examples given in this paper refer to vocational education and training, non-R&D-based innovation, the satisfaction of local demand for goods and services and various effects on regional income development. In light of this, it is argued that regional policy could place a stronger emphasis on craft enterprises in the future.
