Journal Title: Journal of European Economy - Year 2016, Vol 15, Issue 1

Abstract

The article elaborates on the concepts of region and regionalization. The authors show ways for adopting the European system for unification of regional units (NUTS) in Ukraine. The authors systemize and classification European countries into unitary, regional and federal states; highlight the conditions for re-gionalization; and study the aspects of subsidiarity in the context of the on-going decentralization.
