Abstract

This paper presents a theoretical review of possibilities for a change in paradigm in regional policy, which is part of both territorial policy and economic policy. Advantages and disadvantages of each kind of regional policy are analyzed. Causes and results of the economic depression and its influence on Hungarian economic and regional policy are shown. Desirable directions of a paradigm change in Hungary’s regional policy are proposed.

Keywords: regional policy, territorial policy, economic growth, economic depression, paradigm, directions of change
