SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE POLISH DUO-REGION POMERANIA
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to determine the degree of social and economic development of poviatsin the duo-region Pomerania composed of two seaside voivodships: West Pomeranian and Pomeranian.
The methods used include descriptive statistics and multidimensional comparative analysis (the measure of aggregation and cluster analysis).
The results of the ranking obtained by applying two different taxonomic methods were not the same. The varied results of the ranking and evaluation of poviats prove the need for an in-depth analysis in order to find the objective causes of this situation.
The presented methods could be applied to plan and monitor regional strategy with regard to sustainable development.
