| Course Objectives: |
Objective of this course is to provide theoretical basis, rules, and aspects of regional policy and regional development in EU countries. The course will get students familiar with the idea of Euro-pean Union regional policy and its evolution, institutions, mechanism, and financing. Essential part of the course will be focusing on contemporary problems of EU regional policy, regional development in selected countries, differences and priorities. The course will particularly analyze regional development processes and offer students a variety of ‘good practices’. Case study analysis will be an important component of the course. |
