  • Successful Re-Settlements in Slovakia. How Rural Communities in Central Europe Can Be Successful
    6th Central European Conference in Regional Science – CERS, 2017 - 611 - Successful re-settlements in Slovakia. How rural communities in central europe can be successful DAVID COLE Faculty of Economics, Matej Bel University Tajovského 10, 975 90 Banská Bystrica Slovakia [email protected] Abstract With rural-development, high-profile projects tend to garner much of the attention in terms of media coverage and political focus. In Slovakia, this can be seen with the reconstruction of some of the castles, manor houses, and other historical buildings around the country. There is, however, a private movement afoot that is quietly re- vitalizing areas and objects that have been abandoned or disused for a long period of time. Though these objects don’t have the historical significance of places of royalty, they do have significant cultural value. One such region that is undergoing resurgence and stabilization is central Slovakia, more specifically the area south of the Banská Bystrica/Zvolen commuter zone. Even as new homes are being built, old businesses and buildings are being repaired and repurposed, creating ideal small town communities. This paper will detail the small-scale efforts that are occurring on an individual level that are helping to stabilize a rural sub-set in Slovakia. Key words: rural development, abandoned properties, creative economy, resettlement JEL Classification: R11 1 Introduction For many demographers and economist, it has become a foregone conclusion that mass agglomeration is the key to success, both economically as a nation and for individuals with their life-goal ambitions. In the case of Slovakia, the capital city plays the role of governmental, financial, and gateway centre to the rest of the country.

  • Policy Paper Innovation of Energy
    Policy Paper Innovation of Energy Sector in Slovakia: high hopes without strategy? December 2017 The Slovak Republic is a Central European country with an industry-intensive economy focused mainly on machinery and automotive production, with big potential for further grow in the sector. In 2017, yet another big company started building a factory in Slovakia—Jaguar Land Rover in the western Slovak town of Nitra. A growing industry is the main reason behind the growing energy consumption in Slovakia, especially electricity. Electricity consumption was 30.103.000 GWh in 2016 and the trend has been growing steadily since the lowest point in the year Slovakia became independent, 1993, (24.497.000 GWh). There was a drop in consumption because of the global economic crisis in 2008, but since then the consumption is growing again and is now above the pre-crisis level.1 With the prospect of consumption in Slovakia being that of a continued growth, it is important for the Slovak economy to ensure the stability and security of the energy sector. At the same time, the need to reduce CO2 emissions arises. Even though the International Energy Agency states that there has been a sharp decline in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions since 1990, ‘the Slovak Republic remains a GHG- intensive economy by OECD standards, with energy-related CO2 emissions accounting for over 70% of total GHG emissions.’2 1 http://sepsas.sk/Vyroba_Spotreba.asp?kod=568 2 http://www.iea.org/publications/freepublications/publication/energy-policies-of-iea-countries---the-slovak- republic-2012-review.html Government strategies towards the According to the IEA,3 the drop in emissions was primarily the result of the decline of economic innovation in energy activity and industry.
