Tolna
– a rural area in Central-Europe
Regional and local development
in Tolna County, Hungary
Pap, Norbert (edited) |
 |
Tolna is one of the most
varied and controversial counties in Hungary. Evaluations of the country
are highly contrastive. The duality of poverty and economic power, backwardness
and a rich cultural heritage, easily accessible, pleasant settlements as
well as increasing migration, availability of resources and favourable
local conditions versus a lack of their utilisation are all characteristic
features of Tolna.
Assessing all the above
dual conditions, the aim of our study is to form a realistic picture of
the state of regional and settlement development in Tolna County. Based
on processing considerable existing data and our own empirical research
supported by statistical G.I.S. and other methods, the assessment is to
promote Tolna’s awareness of its potentials, also to demonstrate the county’s
features with scientific standards. |
