Summary: | The modern development of Ukraine and its regions on the background
of the ongoing European integration process requires a detailed study of
the experience of forming the European regional policy, positive examples
and trends that have contributed to economic growth of the territories and
improvement of population welfare of EU countries with a view to their use
in forming the own national policy in the country. The EU regional policy,
which is called the “unification” policy, as part of the European structural
policy is aimed at solving development problems of the territories, primarily,
depressive, old industrial, underdeveloped ones reducing the existing
imbalances in social and economic development of the regions and preventing
the emergence of inter-regional imbalances in the European Union. Studies
of the uneven development of a country’s territories are an important part of
its government policy. Identification of the main features of the asymmetry
makes it possible not only to reveal the current situation with imbalances
in the regional potential for sustainable development but also to assess the
government’s actions aimed at their elimination. For Ukraine, which sets
a goal to integrate into the European community, a detailed study of the
experience and analysis of the priority principles of EU countries’ regional
policy are very feasible in the formation and implementation of its own
regional policy with regard to the best European principles of organization of
managing the regional and local development and local government reform.
Using the best practices of the regional policy of EU countries in Central and
Eastern Europe, which show stable positive change in the socio-economic
development, can appear to be of a special value |
