Tartalmi kivonat:In the economies developing and transforming as a result of globalisation processes, increasing localisation represents one of the most marked processes: while the importance of national economies (relatively) is decreasing, the economic role of regions and cities seems to grow. Global competition has intensified also in space, especially with the growing importance of knowledge-based economy. Interregional competition, which means the competition of regions and cities for scarce resources, global aims and so on, is increasingly prevalent. The economic characteristics of interregional competition differ form those of the competition of companies or on the labour market; consequently, the improvement of competitiveness can be described differently in the case of regions. After reviewing the most important features of global competition, the present paper provides a detailed analysis of the concept and characteristics of interregional competition. Departing from the criteria of interregional competition, it reviews the concept of regional competitiveness and gives the pyramidal model serving the improvement of regional competitiveness. Based on this model it also outlines the development ideas, so called ‘UFO model’, aiming to improve the competitiveness of regions with different development levels.
