Best Way to Assess Resilience? Theoretical and Methodological Clarification of Resilience

Original language description

The paper deals with the resilience of regional economies, which represent the current direction of the European Union. Economies have always been prone to different kinds of shocks, such as economic downturns, industry shocks, currency crises, which can destabilise the path and pattern of regional economic growth. Regional economy perturbed by a shock may move onto a new growth path by re-establishing economic linkages both internally and with other regions. The question of why one region is more vulnerable to economic shock than others and what are its competitive advantages and disadvantages, impelled to analyse resilience notion in a regional development context. The paper concentrates on regional analysis, specifically on the definition of factors of the resilience of regions. Several methods of evaluating regional economies exist, most of the methods have their limitations, especially in the selection of relevant indicators and weighting scheme. Despite the limitations, several approaches have been proposed by the EU and the other institutions, especially in the form of composite or synthetic aggregate indicators or indices. The paper aims to throw light on some of the underlying aspects of regional resilience and give an overview of the notion in line with planning tasks concerning regional resilience. Based on the systematic literature review, the related objective is to introduce the method of construction of the index from a methodological point of view.
