摘要:The role of culture as a determinant of economic development has been extensively debated in literature.This papers aims at analysing at NUTS 2 level the relationship between cultural values and economic development in Romania.Drawing on the existing literature we select from World Values Survey database two types of cultural traits: ones which are proven to be more favourable to economic development such as,trust,independence etc.and several characteristics which are demonstrated to hamper this process as,for example,obedience.They are used to create a cultural portrait of the eight Romanian development regions and,furthermore,using statistical analyses,to explain the differences in development between them.
