The impact of the economic crisis on regional disparities in Croatia
研究了2008-2012年经济危机期间克罗地亚各县的经济差异变化,分析了地区韧性决定因素,为区域经济政策改进提供建议。
The economic crisis has affected EU regions differently. In some countries, downturns can lead to narrower interregional disparities, while in others, they can trigger regional divergence. The crisis in Croatia has had a negative effect on national and regional development indicators, leading to significant regional disparities. The aim of this article is to discuss whether regional imbalances in Croatia have been more exposed by the current crisis, to analyse the disparities between economic developments in Croatian counties over the period of recession (2008–2012), to discover the main determinants of regional resilience to recessionary impacts and to make recommendations for improvements in Croatian regional economic policy.
