Disparities in Human Development index in the countries of Visegrad Group Plus
Original language description
The economic level of countries is mostly measured with the macroeconomic aggregates such as the Gross National Product or the Gross National Income per capita. They reflect the creation of added value, but not include social, political, cultural or environmental aspects. It was therefore necessary to set up and use alternatives for measuring ongoing economic development. One of that alternatives, created on national level, is the Human Development Index. However, this index does not express the differences in regions of countries. The aim of the paper is, according to construction of a modified Human Development Index, find out the existence or absence of regional disparities in the field of human development. These observations were done in the regions of the countries that are the members of the Visegrad Group Plusin the years 2004 to 2013. The regions at the NUTS II level, and regional modified index called the NUTS Human Development Index (NHDI) were chosen. One assumption was cho sen for the aim of this paper: an inside disparity of regions does not exist - all of them in every country are on the same or very similar level. This hypothesis, based on a statistical verification, has not been confirmed.
