Regional disparities and regional development: The case of Serbia

Abstract

The paper deals with regional disparities in Serbia, considering demographic and economic regional differences. The analyses of those disparities are placed in the context of the EU and of neighboring countries. The authors used statistical instruments to show the extent of Serbian regional disparities, as well as maps to visualise these differences. The results are used to develop a rough outline of possible solutions to such regional inequalities in Serbia, considering existing Serbian and EU development documents.
