Project for a Functional Regionalization of Romania
Journal Title: Romanian Review of Regional Studies - Year 2013, Vol 9, Issue 2
Abstract
The decision of the Romanian Government to connect Romania closer to the realities of the European Union, including administration, imposes the introduction of a new taxon, the regional one, equivalent to NUTS 2 level, which did not exist before in the panoply of the national spatial entities. This has generated a special effervescence of concerns in the field, reflected in the elaboration of numerous regionalization scenarios, based on various criteria, from the geographical ones to the economic, social, political, or heteroclite ones. This is the context in which the model of territorial division presented below was elaborated. The model was submitted to the attention of the Romanian Geographical Society during its annual Conference held in Timişoara on 25-27 May 2013, being unanimously voted by the specialists in Geography attending the meeting.
