Abstract

The article analyses the endogenous development
characteristics of chosen Croatian counties. The analysis
suggests that the position on the Western border of the
country positively influences the development capacity of
Croatian counties. Development performances of the Vukovar-Srijem County are analyzed with regard to previous
insight. Considerable asymmetries between successful
Croatian counties and the Vukovar-Srijem County are found.
Therefore, optimizing mechanisms are proposed as an
operational plan for the leverage of development
asymmetries. These policies are proposed in order to avoid
the deepening of existing asymmetries in the context of the
Croatian integration to the European Union.
