THE MACROECONOMIC EVOLUTIONS IN THE ROMANIA DEVELOPMENT REGIONS IN THE CURRENT ECONOMIC - FINANCIAL CRISIS

Disparities between the regions of Romania as within them were both in the run-up to accession of Romania to the European Union as well as after 1 January 2007. This phenomenon has gained momentum due to the impact of economic restructuring, especially in the areas of monoindustriale, whose population has been affected by unemployment as a result of the closure of unprofitable State enterprises. The impact of the financial and economic crisis on economic growth at the level of the eight development regions of Romania did not produce modifications in their rankings after the index of regional disparity, even though for some, its value increased compared to 2006 or 2008. The paper presents a comparative analysis of the evolution of macroeconomic indicators in the development regions of Romania in the period 2006-2011
