Abstract

The article examines important aspects of spatial differences in three leading areas - social, economic and environmental. The main aim is to present the results of the development and approbation of an author’s methodology for assessing the existence of “inclusive regional development” – a development that does not lead to critical regional differences. The methodology is applied to assess the inclusive economic development in EU countries. Its application at a district level for Bulgaria allows to determine those of them that are the most problematic and do not meet the requirements for inclusive development in terms of economic, social and environmental dimensions. Lastly, the results of the research and analysis are summarized.
