Built Infrastructure Disparities in Romania
Journal Title: Romanian Review of Regional Studies - Year 2006, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Our paper focuses on built infrastructure disparities in Romania, especially on: the drinking water supply, the sewage system, the gas supply, the thermic energy, the telephone, and the public roads networks. We used statistical data from the 2003 Statistic Annual of Romania and we made our research using quantitative methods as well as calculating certain disparity indices (e.g. Hirschmann–Herfindahl Index, the Dual Index) in order to show the interregional disparity increase/decrease.
