Role of Border Regions in the Economic Development of Debrecen

Journal Title: EUROLIMES - Year 2018, Vol 25, Issue 25

Abstract

Border region location had been associated with social and economic backwardness for a long time. Nevertheless, the advantages resulting from the border region situation and the processes promoting development of the regions concerned gain more and more attention nowadays. In view of the above, the aim of our paper is to offer an analysis of the relationship between economic development and border region location through the example of Debrecen situated in the eastern border region of Hungary. The chief results of our study may be summarised relying on the development concepts of the city and the promotional brochures prepared for the enterprises which emphasise border location from many aspects (e.g. accessibility of new markets, labour reserves), although the references made to the gateway role of Debrecen started to diminish in the most recent period.
