Summary/Abstract: The first part of this paper concerns the concept of regional development as stated and clarified in a series of legal provisions adopted by the European Union. Another section tackles the regulation of regional policies in Romania in accordance with its specificities and the EU legal norms. The last part of this study synthetically summarizes some of the impediments to implementing regional policies. The major arguments in favor of supporting regional policies are purely economic, but we should also consider social, political, environmental factors. The manners of implementing regional policies vary from region to region depending on their particularities; the specific mechanisms are always entrusted to the local authorities, which, through their representatives, establish the directions of regional development in each region.
