Abstract
A study on settlement development and growth may encounter such deep-rooted contradictions whose detailed examination potentially results in the identification of considerable differences in planning. The comparison of developments along an economy-based time horizon will give sharp contours to the planning strategy, which used to be called simply plan directives, and now is known as development policy. Domestic examples have been studied to describe the development concept required by the European Union from the newly acceded countries, with one of the outcomes being the seven-year planning cycle after the three- and five-year projections of earlier periods. Obviously, areas that are predominantly industrial and agricultural should be examined from different perspectives, and their comparison would also add an interesting element to the overall picture in the light of the changes of planning concepts.
