Abstract

Razlike u stupnju regionalnog razvitka nekog područja, koje još možemo nazvati regionalnim disparitetima, sveprisutni su razvojni fenomen koji se veže uz brojne gospodarske, socijalne, morfološke, funkcionalne i ine aspekte razvoja određenog područja te su kao takve čest predmet interesa multidisciplinarnih istraživanja mnogih struka. Te se razlike ogledaju u neuravnoteženom demografskom, socioekonomskom i razvoju određenog prostora. U ovom su radu promatrani upravo takvi dispariteti na području Donjeg Međimurja. Najprije je izvršena suštinska demogeografska i socioekonomska analiza putem dostupnih podataka kako bi se utvrdili polovi razvoja. Potom su izvedeni još neki pokazatelji (kao što su podaci o stambenoj gradnji po općinama, indeks razvijenosti te indeks turističke razvijenosti) koji mogu ukazivati na određene disparitete u razvoju. Uslijedio je kvalitativni dio istraživanja u kojem su provedena dva polustrukturirana intervjua s načelnicima dviju općina (Strahoninec i Donja Dubrava) koje su bile reprezentativni primjerci svojih razvojnih polova. Također, proveden je i intervju s predstavnikom LAG-a Mura-Drava kao važnim ruralnim akterom. Na kraju je kao svojevrsni presjek svega izrađena i SWOT analiza područja. Istraživanjem je ustvrđeno da Donje Međimurje odlikuje značajan stupanj regionalnog disbalansa u razvoju te da se u budućnosti moraju provesti suštinske mjere kako bi se revitalizirao istok regije.

Abstract (english)

Differences in the degree of regional development of an area, which we can also call regional disparities, are a common development phenomenon that is linked to numerous economic, social, morphological, functional and other aspects of the development of a certain area, and as such are a frequent subject of interest in multidisciplinary research by many professions. These differences are reflected in the unbalanced demographic, socioeconomic and other development of a certain area. In this paper, precisely such disparities were observed in the area of Donje Međimurje. First, an essential demogeographical and socioeconomic analysis was performed using the available data in order to determine the poles of development. Then some other indicators were derived (such as data on housing construction by municipality, development index and tourism development index) that may indicate certain disparities in development. This was followed by the qualitative part of the research, in which two semi-structured interviews were conducted with the mayors of two municipalities (Strahoninec and Donja Dubrava), who were representative examples of their development poles. Also, an interview was conducted with a representative of LAG Mura-Drava as an important rural actor. At the end, a SWOT analysis of the area was prepared as a kind of cross-section of everything. The research established that Donje Međimurje is characterized by a significant degree of reg. imbalance in development and that essential measures must be implemented in the future in order to revitalize the east of the region.
