Abstract

The aim of this study is to present a regional competitiveness model based on a general model of competitiveness that is able to rank the NUTS 2 regions of East and Central based on their respective incomes per capita. The major goal of this analysis is to numerically support the assumption that there are competitiveness gaps both between the capital city and countryside and the Northern and Southern regions of the countries. This is a fact, which strictly determines the regional development policies.
