The issue of development appeared and was explained at regional level in 1957 in the Treaties of Rome, in the 158th article. Since that regulation, great efforts have been made to decrease the inequalities among the differently developed regions within the European Union. The picture of the EU undoubtedly changed with the recent enlargements of 2004 and 2007. The accession of 12 new member states not only entails the integration of countries with generally lower GDP and higher unemployment levels, but also causes an increase in the diversity in terms of e.g. social structures, institutional profiles, urban-rural relationships and environmental challenges. However, embracing this diversity implies a need to adapt analytical approaches to social, economic and environmental phenomena correspondingly. In our paper we pointed at the fundamental scantiness of the conventional economic development theory and practice and as a comparison we represented the case of human development. We highlighted the fundamental differences of the two cases, their relation and also their spatial features. The aim of our research was to find out whether the generally used economic macroindicator (GDP per capita) and the HDI reflect the real economic development of the regions in Central and Eastern Europe.
