Measurement of Human Development in the Regions of Visegrad Group Plus
Original language description
The most common indicators for measuring the economic level of countries are the macroeconomic aggregates such as the Gross National Product or the Gross National Income per capita. Though they reflect the creation of added value, they do not include social, political, cultural or environmental aspects. It was therefore necessary to create and use alternatives for measuring ongoing economic development. These alternatives reflect socio-economic development and one of them is the Human Development Index. However, the human development index does not express the differences in regions of countries. The aim of the paper is to construct a modified Human Development Index for a group of countries of the Visegrad Group Plus (hereafter V4+) at the NUTS II level, called the NUTS Human Development Index, the NHDI. Two years were chosen for the comparison - 2005, which was the beginning of the EU memberships of most of the compared countries and the last year when all indicators were available ( 2013). Our expectations about the positive influence of the EU membership on decreasing regional disparities among the regions, based on the results of the NHDI, were not confirmed.
