摘要：The elaboration of Romania polycentric development model was accomplished by the Interdisciplinary Center for Advanced Researches on Territorial Dynamics, of the University of Bucharest and National Institute for Development and Researches “Urbanproiect” SA. Polycentric development is an important objective at European level, which has the purpose of creating competitive economic spaces, distributed balanced across the EU, without differences between the center and the periphery, which will ensure the territorial cohesion throughout the areas of economic integration. Polycentric development strategy is based on the ranking of poles of development in terms of capacity of polarization and identification of structural axes that will be specialized in the same time with the increasing of polarization capacity. Polycentric development strategy can provide the spatial decentralization projection ranked a network composed of decision-making levels, at which will develop strategies for the realization of territorial specificities.
