description | There have been numerous debates on a new territorial organization of Romania during 2013 and
2014. The miracle of Romania regionalization was deemed to have contradictory effects from territorial
construction to dissolution. Due to the presidential elections from the end of 2014, the process of
regionalization was postponed, but some questions are still very alive: It is necessary to regroup counties into
regions? The low development of Romania regions is caused by the lack of administrative decentralization?
In Romania, territorial reform is synonym with institutional reform? Therefore, I consider that it is important
to identify the potential sources of change in Romanian regional policy. The political debates on Romanian
regionalization were mainly focus on political interests, without taking into account an important serious of
factors that can spur growth and socio-economic development across our regions. Through this paper I try to
investigate the specialised literature in order to identify some useful policy suggestions from regional
scientists, which would be proper for Romania regional development, in the current context of Europe 2020
strategy. |
