Abstract

The re-appreciation of industrial concentration in the European Union and also in Hungary resulted in this issue becoming the focus of my research. In my opinion the industry-related concentration studies and analyses are important since the regional and sector structure changes in industry might induce a number of positive economic processes (increasing efficiency, competitiveness, deepening cooperation), may help considerably the rise of the given area and the whole national economy. Besides the number of positive effects, however, it can also result in some negative effects (e.g. one-sided industrial structure, a deep crisis during recession, industrially depressed areas), all of which may hinder the dynamic development of a region for a shorter or longer time. The present study aims to examine the characteristic changes of the domestic industry in recent years (spatial and structural) were characterized, and to what extent these changes influenced the geographical and sectoral concentration of our present industry.
