Competitiveness map of the settlements in Pest County

Nowadays, the concepts of globalization and competitiveness increasingly come to the fore. Territorial entities are looking for the correct direction of development at all levels to answer the accelerated world economy changes by Internet and other developments. With the help of the European Union, Hungary is also looking for its place and its development opportunities in this regional competition. This study is an abbreviated version of a multi-year research. Since joining the European Union, Hungarian regions were not always able to take advantage of the opportunities provided by the EU. In our study, we are looking for the disparities within the territory of the Central Hungarian region without Budapest. What is the grade of homogeneity in Pest County? It seems to be proven that even the most developed region of Hungary has significant regional disparities in terms of competitiveness. After the global economic crisis of 2008-2009 the importance of comparative advantages and competitiveness have been increased at both national and regional levels (KÁPOSZTA - NAGY - VILLÁNYI, 2008; HORSKÁ - SMUTKA - MAITAH, 2012)

Case study of a spider web entropy analysis

In our paper we will present a part of a result of a complex research, which in we have examined five approaches of system analysis from the development aspects of rural areas. The cross-sectional system analysis approach helps us to understand the different outputs of relations and interactions between individual systems and underlines the importance of harmony between individual systems and the limits of growth regarding economic, social and environmental systems. The development system analysis approach emphasizes that an area can be defined as a system, too. The inappropriate interventions may cause distortions in the systems and the ideal tetraeder-like theoretical system will be upset. The functionalist system analysis approach tries to define the functions within the system. The definition of functions within the system is inevitable for drafting the development. In order to ensure the most efficient utilization of development sources, the functions of subsystems and their possibilities within the system should definitely be understood. The holistic system analysis approach focuses on the complexity of an area and helps to learn the system as a whole. The theory tries to consider all those elements that can be involved in the development and aims to describe these system elements in their complexity. The reductionist system analysis approach takes apart the system to its elements and aims to draft development concepts from the totality of the components. In our paper we will present the combination of the five approaches (Spider Web Entropy Analysis) through a case study

Case study on spider-net enthrophy investigation in rural areas

The theoretical background of the research was published in 2012. We present a part of a result of a complex research, in which we investigated spider-net entrophy from the development aspects of rural areas. The paper introduces a new type of situation analyses as a case study. The selected study area is Veresegyház micro region. Based on the complexity of inequalities of the territories is not advantageous to do an examination only in one dimension NAGY- KÁPOSZTA (2006). KÁPOSZTA et al. (2008) highlight the subsystems of the development are in sum and part relationship with each other, and they act as a sensitive system. The abstract way of thinking the meaning of entropy theory formed the so-called spider web-entropy analysis, which helps to find out how the structure order between the pillars of the spider web is

Pest megye településeinek versenyképességi térképe

Magyarország, valamint Magyarország régiói keresik helyüket és fejlődési lehetőségeiket a területi versenyben. A Közép-Magyarországi régió az, amely bár egyetlen megyét foglal magában mégis a fővárossal együtt a legdinamikusabban fejlődő terület. Pest megye térszerkezete jelentős gazdasági, társadalmi és környezeti tagoltággal bír. Ezen területi különbségek részben természetföldrajzi adottságokkal magyarázhatóak. Tanulmányunkban arra keressük a választ, hogy a Közép-Magyarországi régió Budapest nélkül milyen területi egyenlőtlenségekkel rendelkezik, valamint, hogy mennyire tekinthetjük homogénnek a megyét. Bebizonyosodni látszik, hogy Magyarország legfejlettebb régiója versenyképesség szempontjából jelentős belső különbségeket mutat
