Abstract

The present volume contains papers from the "Second Colloquium on Regional Development" which took place in Bardejov, Slovakia in October 1992. A particular focus of this Colloquium was the potential for collaboration in near-border areas, in fact similar to the region where the Colloquium took place. The opportunity to cooperate across national borders has been brought about by the recent political changes in Central and Eastern Europe but to make full use of this opportunity may well be harder than some of the papers of this volume suggest. Nevertheless, some progress can be made quickly, and conferences of this sort do help to advance cooperation.

The contributions span issues from economic, societal, and environmental problems to examples of measures, policies, and solutions in some countries. They address issues on national, regional, and local levels from different viewpoints, so that the participants could find topics relevant to their interest.
