This paper examines how the proposed conceptualization of Croatia’ s regional economic development, Koncepcija regionalnong gospodarskog razvitka Republike Hrvatske (1999), addresses the challenges of Croatia’ s uneven economic development. While the problems of Croatia’ s lagging regions have been addressed, the conceptualization contains controversies regarding what should be the guiding principles of regional policy -- targeted or balanced regional economic development. The proposed conceptualization represents a mixture of neoliberal thinking about the key actors in regional economic development, principles of European Union regionalism and the socialist-era legacies. Consequently, it lacks clarity in several key aspects. A specific challenge is the existing multiciplicity of regional and socials interests as well as the limitations of regional economic development based on rigid administrative-territorial units.
