In promoting transnational regional development, the European Commission designated the ‘Atlantic Arc’ as one of eight ‘Euroregions’ in its Europe 2000 reports. This article critically examines this ‘Arc’ concept and assesses the degree to which it is being transformed into reality. It then draws implications for builders of other potential transnational regions within the EU. While the Atlantic Arc Commission has promoted a range of cross‐border activities, commitment to it varies greatly and the projects undertaken remain limited in scale. Therefore, it is too soon to judge whether it is generating durable transnational ‘bottom‐up’ development, or merely pursuing a regional mirage
