It also aims to propose a typology of cross-border areas in the EU considering the above criteria. The obtained results show that despite a relatively evident reduction of the level of asymmetry of economic development in many cases in the period 1990-2015, and particularly after 2004, many cross-border areas show significant disparities in the economic sphere. Moreover, the dynamics of the observed transformations remain spatially differentiated.}, type={Text}, title={Asymmetry of the economic development of cross-border areas in the European Union: assessment and typology}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/Content/197769/PDF/WA51_221592_r2020-t39_EuropaXXI-Jakubowski.pdf}, keywords={assymetry, borderlands, cohesion, Cohesion Policy, cross-border areas, disparities, European Union}, }
