Romania’s Regional Development in the Economical Reform Process

The scientific basis of regional development strategies implies the most exact possible knowledge of the development level of each region in the field of national development complexity, the mutations that occurred from one period to another. The diversity of activities which take place within villages, regions etc. do not permit their addition only. In this context, their merging into one single synthetic indicator is necessary. We believe that this indicator can be determined starting with the basic principles of information energy. Such a synthetic, aggregated indicator allows the setting of direct connections between certain parts of development, measured by different indicators, as well as their importance, the specific transformations of the quantitative aspects of the development in their qualitative elements. By this approach, the premises of the implied organisms in this field are created, to set the realistic political coordinates of regional development, which are meant to decrease the existent differences between regions and to prevent the appearance of other differences, and to assure as similar as possible working and living conditions for the inhabitants of all regions.
