Abstract

As part of a more extended study, we have shown that the decision on Romania’s regionalization needs to be taken considering more than one criteria. One of the purposes for regionalization is to stimulate development, and we consider that services are an important criterion to take into account. The aim of this paper is to study Romania’s services; the variables we analyse are related to telephone, mail and railway transportation services. Regarding these domains, with the instruments provided by Onicescu’s informational statistics, we prove that Romanian regions are not homogeneous, and we conclude that this criterion can be used in a multi-criteria model for deciding on Romania’s reorganization
