Trends of Industrial Reconversion in the Land of the Moţi

Journal Title: Romanian Review of Regional Studies - Year 2006, Vol 2, Issue 1

Abstract

Our paper presents an example of a regional development strategy where wood industry and mining still ensure the functionality of the region. The strategy we have presented may be expanded to territories where industrial reconversion has called for the breaking up of traditional economic branches. We have concluded that the economic specificity of the Land of the Moţi relies on these two industrial branches (mining and wood processing), even if, some severe restructuring has been taking place.
