| Description | The aim of this article is to assess the economic performance of 271 regions on the level NUTS 2 in member states of the EU (EU-27). The evaluation presented in this study is based on the synthesis of selected available indicators (excluding GDP) which can be considered the key prerequisites for or aspects of the economic level of the regions and which emphasize the principles of knowledge economy. The selected indicators are the following: disposable household income, unemployment rate, expenditures on research and development, employment in research and development, employment in knowledge-intensive services and employment in high and medium high-technology manufacturing sector. The evaluation is carried out both as static, when data for 2006 were used, and dynamic, when the change (index) between 2000 an 2006 is calculated. On this basis it is possible to divide the regions in accordance with their economic development as well as their development trends. |
