On territorial capital and geographical and traffic position of Serbia in the spatial plan of the Republic of Serbia 2010-2014-2020 (2010): A critical review

The utilization of territorial capital has been a relatively new thematic issue in European spatial planning, also treated in Serbia only as from very recently. The Spatial Plan of the Republic of Serbia 2010-2014-2020, adopted in 2010, represented an attempt of the kind, i.e., to address this theme in a strategic document at the state (national) level, paralleling few regional plans also comprising this issue in a more significant way. Apart from dealing with the geographical and traffic position of Serbia, some other aspects of overall territorial capital of Serbia have also been taken into account. However, the aproach and defined concept have been applied rather rudimentary and insufficiently, especially vis-a-vis implementation of the Plan and concomitant institutional and organisational support, either at the state (national) or at the regional governance levels
