摘要：The regional scale of the economic research approach is relatively recent, although the traditional schools
of economic thought treated indirectly the regional symmetries topic, identifying in this way the
development potential of trade as a follow of the cost differential for a wide range of commodities and
services and also the importance of the spatial economical issues. The space started to be perceived as an
essential aspect of the economy and it creates some outstanding opportunities by stimulating international
trade, but on the other hand it can produce a great hindrance in the way of economic development, by
means of occurring severe structural problems.
In this paper, the author propose to explain the role of EU regional policies. In this sense, we will use the
new economic geography theory, in order to point out the exogen aspect of economic growth, which
contributes to the achievement of regional growth. This represents a benchmark in regional economic
thought evolution, which creates a new approach about some much disputed issues like economic
agglomeration, regional marketing strategies and regional asymmetries.
