Abstract	"Harmonising regional disparities without giving up cultural identity is a fundamental prerequisite for peace and poses perhaps the greatest challenge of our time. Facing a wide diversity of both economic and social structures, the European Union meets the task of harmonising the development for future general improvement of living conditions. In spite of general progress in terms of GNP growth at national level, regional disparities show little convergence. Additionally, the integration of Eastern European states formerly marked by planned economies, poses enormous problems for HR development in the course of a transformation replacing authoritative regulations by market competition. First, in view of the need for complex relationship between human capital and regional disparities, the need for multidimensional approaches is stressed. Then an outline of the administrative framework for regional and cohesion policy, promoted by the EU Commission, is given. The focus is upon the European Social Funds (ESF), its objectives, related strategies and implementations. The factors contributing to success or failure of projects related to HR development are then considered within a broader context of evaluation results, presented for the Italian Mezzogiorno, the new Eastern German provinces and Eastern European transition economies. As an outlook, chances for a social dialogue to foster HR development, are discussed." (author's abstract).
