English abstract:
The project is concerned with the distribution of competencies in the field of regional development Policies in the member states of the European Union. The general objective of the study is to analyse the main trends in decentralisation of national development policy and the possible contribution of structural funds to this process. The analysis requires the reconstruction of regional and local public finance data in a way which is comparable with the system of classification adopted by Structural Funds. The country analysis for Austria focuses on public expenditure for development (by administrative levels, functions, economic categories and territories).
