Περίληψη

Το παρόν άρθρο επιχειρεί σε πρώτο βήμα να καταδείξει την εξέλιξη της ευημερίας όπως αυτή μετράται με τον δείκτη του κατά κεφαλήν Ακαθαρίστου Εθνικού Προϊόντος - ΑΕΠ (διορθωμένο βάσει της αγοραστικής δύναμης), καθώς επίσης και της ανταγωνιστικότητας, όπως αυτή εκτιμάται από τον δείκτη περιφερειακής ανταγωνιστικότητας (Regional Competitiveness Index - RCI) που εκδίδει κάθε τρία χρόνια η Ευρωπαϊκή Επιτροπή. Σε δεύτερο βήμα επιχειρείται η ανάδειξη της άμεσης σχέσης μεταξύ ανταγωνιστικότητας και ευημερίας ενώ ταυτόχρονα επισημαίνονται οι βασικοί παράγοντες που επιδρούν στην ανταγωνιστικότητα και ιδιαίτερα ο ρόλος των θεσμών και πώς επηρεάζουν άμεσα την ανάπτυξη και, εν τέλει, την ευημερία των κρατών γενικότερα αλλά και των περιφερειών ειδικότερα.
