Abstract:
The establishment of the regional level in Slovakia was one of the conditions for our accession
to the European Union. Its real creation took place in the Slovak Republic two years before the accession
to the European Community. Despite the efforts of the Cohesion Policy of the European Union
to reduce regional disparities across the member states of the EU, at the regional level of the Slovak
Republic, it is possible to constantly monitor differences in the development of the regions. Their elimination
is the main objective of Slovak regional policy. The representatives of the national level use the
European Union’s support policy to gradually reduce or eliminate the regional disparities. This policy
offers the possibility of drawing financial resources from several funds. The indicator of differences in
regional development is the regional gross domestic product per capita. By monitoring and analysing
its evolution over several years, it is possible to see whether disparities at the regional level are being
reduced or, on the contrary, are deepening.
In the following article, to determine the current state of regional differences, we present the development
of regional disparities of Slovak higher territorial units in 2009-2018 through monitored data on
regional gross domestic product per capita at current prices.
Keywords:
Regional differences, Regional development, Regional level, Regional gross domestic product.
