As disparidades regionais em Portugal: uma sugestão a partir de índices sintéticos

Author

Abstract

O espaço regional português não é uma realidade homogénea. Compreender as diferenças das regiões é um passo essencial para esbater o que as afasta e aproveitar as potencialidades de cada uma. Nesse sentido, tem vindo a ser desenvolvido um esforço de definição de índices e indicadores como os que são apresentados. Ainda que, numa amostra estudada, confirmem a convergência em domínios sócio-económicos relevantes, os valores de alguns índices em particular revelam movimentos divergentes. Alguns desses valores que merecem reflexões mais aprofundadas identificam-se com os referentes às áreas estritamente económicas, como o são o perfil produtivo e a distribuição dos rendimentos. A partir dos índices de base, é oferecida uma gama mais extensa de indicadores compósitos que permitem sintetizar a realidade sócio-económica das NUT III do país.
