type: CreativeWork
description: Through the approaching enlargement of the European Union and the transformation of the states of middle and eastern europe - which for the most part are underdeveloped the regional policy ist confronted with an especially difficult task. The European Union already been characterized by considerable regional disparities concerning national income, employment and productivity, which will then increase after enlargement. Today, the regional policy of the EU in practice neither corresponds to the subsidiarity principle nor to the principles of concentration and the efficient expenditure of strict finances. The organization and distribution ist only possible through a well educated and well coordinated public administration. The last reform was limited only to some new details and was insufficient for the approaching enlargement. In spite of the ample financial provision, the current regional policy is only able to achieve the main target to a certain extent - that is to say the reduction of the regional differences in development. For this reason the quest for more efficiency, purposefulness and innovative solutions is becoming more apparent. In the thesis, there is an extensive investigation concerning the contribution of the structural fonds of the EU for the benefit of the development in the economic less well-developed regions in Ireland and East Germany. On the basis of this analysis, consequences for an effective aid structure in the prospective member states are demonstrated and suggestions for a reform of the regional policy are presented.
