Based on our research on the post 1989 regional policies of Hungary and the European Union, it is clear that the main target of regional development is to help the catch-up of socially and economically backward regions and thus to raise the standard of living of the local population. Therefore, we have come to the conclusion that the time has come to conduct a study in order to assess the efficiency of the measures taken with the aim of helping the catch-up of socially and economically backward regions of Hungary during a certain period after the change of the political system. At the moment, there are several microregions in Hungary which are lagging behind and have difficulties in keeping the population in the rural areas. One of the major aims of the current regional policy is to increase the focus on these territories, because despite of the huge amount of EU development funds, these territories are not able to catch up even to the regions on average.
