Abstract: Differences and regional disparities exist and, hence, the authorities concern for taking long-term regional strategies designed to allocate resources to mitigate and then remove regional disparities. In such cases government intervention becomes imperative for regional policy development, but also for allocating resources for this purpose. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, regional development emerge first as a necessity to correct the existing regional disparities and on the other hand, to retrieve and apply EU law in this area. In all theoretical and practical approaches that aimed at the foundation of strategies and policies for economic and social development, the region is the cornerstone of the county level. Economic and social practice is often viewed as an administrative-territorial unit of a country, having, on the one hand, a geographical determination and on the other, an administrative determination involving an amount of institutional power, which gives it a certain autonomy in relation to the central authority.
Keywords: region, Regional development, geographical determination, administrative determination.
