Romanian Rural Regions Approaching to the New Challenges after 2013
Romanian Rural Regions Approaching to the New Challenges after 2013

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to stress the importance of preparation of Romanian regions for the new challenges of the cohesion- and of the common agricultural policy changes after 2013. Romanian regions are mainly predominant rural (59.3% of territory, 45.8% of population and 32.1% of GVA) and intermediate regions (39.9% of territory, 43.8% of population, and 42.6% of GVA) so in these regions the approach of the regional and rural interface is crucially important. An efficient Europe 2020 strategy presumes close coordination between Cohesion Policy and other EU policies, so the correlation of the Cohesion policy and of the Common Agricultural Policy, mainly the second pillar, the rural development policy constitutes an important research subject. In this paper we intend to characterize the present situation of Romanian regions and on the base of literature overview on the changing directions of the Cohesion and of the Common Agricultural Policy after 2013 we are going to analyze the level of vulnerability of the Romanian regions against these changes.
