Evolution of Territorial Capital Endowment of Hungarian Micro Regions

Summary/Abstract: This study aims to present the territorial capital endowment of the Hungarian micro regions (LAU1 level) from 2004 till 2010 and to measure its annual change. All this allows us to find out the degree of divergence or convergence of the micro regions in terms of territorial capital. Finally, we try to find the answer to by which factors and how many changes of the territorial capital are defined at macro-regional level and in micro regions of different development. We apply a novel way, after normalization, our figures are corrected with a new method calling method of penalty for bottleneck. The results show that development of the micro regions is significantly determined by relational-, economic- and cultural assets mutually. The condition of the balanced accumulation of territorial capital is connecting the economic capital and socioeconomic proximity. We emphasise the micro regions which exploited the background of the cultural economy were able to improve their territorial capital at higher rate than the average.
