The Green Paper on Territorial Cohesion7 put forward by the European Commission was followed by a wide public consultation with regional and local authorities, associations, NGOs, and civil society aimed at furthering the shared understanding of this new concept and its implications for future EU regional policy.
Zeleni knjigi o teritorialni koheziji (7), ki jo je predložila Evropska komisija, je sledilo obsežno javno posvetovanje z regionalnimi in lokalnimi organi, združenji, nevladnimi organizacijami in civilno družbo, katerega cilj je bil okrepiti skupno razumevanje tega novega koncepta in njegovih posledic za prihodnjo regionalno politiko EU.
In February 2009, an own-initiative report of the European Parliament presented its views on possible new orientations for Cohesion policy, and highlighted the aim of an integrated territorial policy which should ensure a balanced exploitation of territorial resources, avoiding both their under- and over-exploitation.
Evropski parlament je februarja 2009 v samoiniciativnem poročilu predstavil svoje poglede na možne nove usmeritve za kohezijsko politiko in poudaril, da je cilj celostna teritorialna politika, ki bo zagotovila uravnoteženo izkoriščanje teritorialnih virov in se izognila premajhnemu ali prekomernemu izkoriščanju.
Members insisted on the fact that territorial cohesion should not be limited to the effects of EU regional policy on the territory of the European Union, but
Poslanci so vztrajali, da teritorialna kohezija ne bi smela biti omejena na učinke evropske regionalne politike na ozemlje EU, temveč bi morala obravnavati tudi ozemeljsko razsežnost drugih
Helping Europe to Bounce Back projects and increased advances for 2009, to help regional development projects by accelerating funding, boosting liquidity and simplifying implementation.
Evropska kohezijska politika pomembno prispeva k temu načrtu. Sprejeti so bili zakonodajni ukrepi, ki naj bi pomagali pospešiti izvajanje projekta na terenu ter dali novo zaupanje in dinamiko evropskemu gospodarstvu: velike projekte in povečana predplačila za leto 2009, da bi s pospešitvijo financiranja, povečanjem likvidnosti in poenostavitvijo izvajanja pomagali regionalnim razvojnim projektom.
Flexibility to distribute EU and national funding shares over the entire programming period will give national economies immediate cash flow to help cope with budget restrictions
Prožnost glede razporejanja deležev nacionalnega fi nan-ciranja in deležev financiranja EU skozi celotno programsko obdobje bo nacionalnim gospodarstvom zagotovila takojšen denarni tok, ki jim bo pomagal pri premagovanju proračunskih omejitev.
In response to the ongoing economic crisis and slow-down in the European economy, the European Parliament and Commission launched a wideranging recovery plan for Europe.

Financial management of the ERDF, the rule changes would mean ERDF money could co-fund national, regional or local authority schemes to install e.g. double glazing, wall insulation or solar panels in housing, or to replace old equipment with more energy efficient one, in all Member States.
Sprememba pravila bi pomenila, da bi z denarjem iz Evropskega sklada za regionalni razvoj v vseh državah članicah lahko sofinancirali sheme nacionalnih, regionalnih ali lokalnih oblasti npr. za dvojno zasteklitev, izolacijo zunanjih zidov ali sončne celice v stanovanjih ali za zamenjavo stare opreme z energijsko učinkovitejšo opremo.
The ERDF currently funds such schemes only in the new (EU-12) Member States, and only in common parts of a building (or the entire building, if it is social housing), in deprived urban areas.
Evropski sklad za regionalni razvoj takšne sheme sedaj financira samo v novih državah članicah (EU-12) in to samo v skupnih prostorih stavb (ali v celi stavbi, če gre za socialna stanovanja) v ogroženih mestnih predelih.

THE WAY AHEAD egional disparities in economic output and income in the EU are far more extreme than in similar economies such as the US or Japan, particularly following recent enlargements.
POT NAPREJ egionalne razlike pri gospodarskih rezultatih in prihodku so v EU veliko večje kot v primerljivih gospodarstvih ZDA ali Japonske, še posebej po zadnjih širitvah.
The richest regions are eight times richer than the poorest regions.
Najbogatejše regije so osemkrat bogatejše od najrevnejših regij.
R key cohesion challenge will therefore continue to be the integration and convergence of the new Member States, in spite of impressive GDP growth rates in recent years.
R bosta še nadalje integracija in konvergenca novih držav članic kljub izrednim stopnjam rasti BDP v zadnjih letih.
Growth in the countries which have been the largest beneficiaries of the policy in the period 1994-2006 – Greece, Spain, Ireland and Portugal – has been marked, although development needs persist in some Southern European regions, Eastern Germany and peripheral areas.
V državah, ki so bile glavne upravičenke kohezijske politike v obdobju 1994–2006, Grčija, Španija, Irska in Portugalska, je bila rast močna, čeprav razvojne potrebe v nekaterih južnoevropskih regijah, vzhodni Nemčiji in na obrobnih območjih ostajajo.
In short, the primary dimension of regional income disparities in the EU remains East-West, with a weaker North-South dynamic and core-periphery pattern at both EU and national levels.
Če povzamemo, glavne regionalne razlike v prihodkih v EU ostajajo na osi vzhod-zahod, prisotne pa so tudi manjše razlike med severom in jugom ter razhajanja med središčem in periferijo, tako na ravni EU kot na nacionalni ravni.
Today’s global financial and economic crisis adds a high degree of unpredictability about the future of the world economy.
Zaradi sedanje finančne in gospodarske krize je prihodnost svetovnega gospodarstva zelo nepredvidljiva.
In this context, it is even more important to examine the extent to which Community policies are adapted to future challenges that European regions will face in the coming years and what the role of Community policies should be in responding to these challenges.
Glede na to je še bolj pomembno preučiti, koliko so politike Skupnosti prilagojene prihodnjim izzivom, s katerimi se bodo soočile evropske regije v naslednjih letih, ter kakšna naj bo njihova vloga pri odzivanju nanje.
The reflection process on the future of Cohesion Policy takes place in the context of the budgetary review, following the mandate received in 2005/2006 “to undertake a full, wide- ranging review covering all aspects of EU spending”.11

THE WAY AHEAD
POT NAPREJ
In this context, it is important to consider the new policy challenges which could have a significant impact on where the Union directs its efforts in the future and, at the same time, to make an assessment of the added value of EU spending.
Glede na to je pomembno upoštevati nove izzive politike, ki bi lahko pomembno vplivali na to, kam bo Unija v prihodnosti usmerila svoja prizadevanja, ter istočasno oceniti dodano vrednost porabe EU.
Among the challenges identified, the following five may be of particular relevance for European regions: the consequences of climate change.
Med navedenimi izzivi jih bo za evropske regije posebno pomembnih naslednjih pet:
Globalisation is driving scientific and technological progress, making the European dimension ever more important in boosting knowledge, mobility, competitiveness and innovation.
Podnebne spremembe Zaradi svojega vpliva na evropsko okolje in družbo so postale podnebne spremembe bistvene za evropsko agendo, saj izzivajo snovalce politik, da premislijo, kako naj se kar najbolje odzovejo z instrumenti politik, ki so na voljo EU.
The opening up of huge new markets creates vast new opportunities for Europeans, but it will at the same time test Europe’s capacity to further adjust to structural change and manage the social consequences of that change.
To velja tako za prizadevanja, da bi ublažili podnebne spremembe z ustavitvijo naraščanja emisij toplogrednih plinov, kot za ukrepe, ki so potrebni za prilagoditev posledicam podnebnih sprememb.
Demographic change will transform the age and employment structure of our societies, raising important issues of both economic efficiency and intergenerational equity.
Varna, trajnostna in konkurenčna energijaje eden najpomembnejših izzivov za družbo.
Migratory pressure will have a particularly strong effect on Europe, due to its proximity to some of the world’s poorest regions and those likely to be worst affected by climate change and natural resource constraints.
Omejena dobava, povečano svetovno povpraševanje in potreba po zmanjšanju emisij so pripeljali do spoznanja, da se je treba v Evropi preusmeriti na nizkoogljično gospodarstvo.
Financial crisis and the economic downturn have thrown into sharp relief the central place of the EU in securing the economic and social well-being of Europeans.
Globalizacija spodbuja znanstveni in tehnični napredek, s čimer postaja evropska razsežnost vse pomembnejša pri povečanju znanja, mobilnosti, konkurenčnosti in inovativnosti.
Parliament and Commission have joined efforts to help limit the negative effect on growth, to support those losing their jobs, and to put the EU economy in the best shape to respond as the cycle turns.
Odpiranje velikih novih trgov ustvarja velike nove priložnosti za Evropejce, istočasno pa preizkuša tudi sposobnost Evrope, da se še bolj prilagodi strukturni spremembi in obvladuje socialne posledice te spremembe.
That means pressing ahead with many of the key objectives of the Lisbon strategy for growth and jobs: freeing up small and medium enterprises to concentrate on building their businesses, training and re-training to promote the right skills for tomorrow’s economy, investing in research and development.
Preoblikovanje v gospodarstvo, ki temelji na znanju in storitvah, je tako globoko kot prejšnji prehod iz kmetijstva v industrijo.
Together these challenges will impact on the development of Europe’s economies and societies over the coming years.
Finančna kriza in gospodarska recesijasta zelo dobro opozorili na osrednje mesto, ki ga ima EU pri zagotavljanju gospodarske in socialne blaginje Evropejcev.
In a global world a mere redistribution of financial resources from one place to another is not sufficient to make catch-
Parlament in Komisija sta združila prizadevanja, da bi pomagala omejiti negativne učinke na rast, podprla tiste, ki so izgubili zaposlitev, in pomagala gospodarstvu EU, da se čim bolje pripravi in odzove na preobrat cikla.To pomeni odločno sledenje poglavitnim ciljem lizbonske strategije za rast in delovna mesta: sprostitev malih in srednjih podjetij, da se osredotočijo na
Climate change has become central to the European agenda due to its impact on Europe’s environment and society, challenging policymakers to reflect on how best to respond with the policy instruments at the EU’s disposal.
Demografska sprememba bo preoblikovala starostno in zaposlitveno strukturo naših družb, s čimer se bodo odprla pomembna vprašanja o gospodarski učinkovitosti in medgeneracijski pravičnosti.
This applies both to efforts to mitigate climate change by tackling the growth in greenhouse gas emissions and the need for measures to adapt to
Na Evropo bo posebno močno vplival migracijski pritisk, saj je blizu nekaterim najrevnejšim regijam na svetu in tistim regijam, ki jih bodo najhuje prizadele podnebne spremembe in omejenost naravnih virov.
25 ation criteria and new sets of indicators will be a difficult task, not least due to the very diverse nature of regional economies.
25 širjenje poslovanja, usposabljanje in prekvalificiranje za spodbujanje pravih znanj, potrebnih za jutrišnje gospodarstvo, ter vlaganje v raziskave in razvoj.
ing up happen. Instead, a fully fledged development policy which targets the endogenous development of the regions is needed.
Drugič, preučiti je treba, kako je mogoče okrepiti regionalno in lokalno razsežnost pri načrtovanju in izvajanju programov.
In this context, Cohesion Policy must remain a central Union policy, in particular with respect to its historical task of matching the further development of the Single Market through the strengthening of economic, social and territorial cohesion across the Community as a whole.
Sedaj je primeren čas, saj nova Pogodba o EU predvideva novo opredelitev evropske subsidiarnosti, s čimer poudarja vlogo regionalnih in lokalnih akterjev.
Three different policy implications can be derived from this.
Na lokalnih ravneh je še vedno veliko neizkoriščenih virov za rast, ki bi se jih dalo zajeti z bolj razširjeno uporabo instrumentov, kot so lokalna nepovratna sredstva, in mehanizmov upravljanja, kot so lokalna partnerstva.
It should in particular focus on the recent separation of rural development from European Cohesion Policy.
Namesto tega je potrebna popolnoma oblikovana razvojna politika, ki si prizadeva za notranje spodbujeni razvoj regij.
Further, it should be discussed whether better alignment between implementing modes of ERDF, ESF and Cohesion Fund would not contribute to more coherent strategic development.
V tem okviru mora kohezijska politika ostati ključna politika Unije, še posebno glede na njeno zgodovinsko nalogo, da uravnoteži nadaljnji razvoj enotnega trga s krepitvijo gospodarske, socialne in teritorialne kohezije v celotni Skupnosti.
This, perhaps, should be the first step addressing the issue of territorial cohesion.
Iz tega je mogoče izpeljati tri različne posledice za politiko.
Secondly, it should be examined how to reinforce the regional and local dimension both in the planning and implementation of programmes.
Tretjič, kohezijska politika se mora bolj osredotočiti na rezultate, pri čemer morajo merila učinkovitosti odražati naravo posega in cilje politike.
The moment is opportune, as the new EU Treaty provides for a new definition of European subsidiarity, emphasizing the role of the regional and local actors.
Iskanje soglasja o novih merilih ocenjevanja in novih nizih kazalnikov bo zahtevna naloga, nenazadnje tudi zaradi raznolike narave regionalnih gospodarstev.
In particular, there are still large unused growth resources at the local levels, which could be tapped by a more widespread use of instruments such as local grants and governance mechanisms such as local partnerships.
Vendar pa bi nove mehanizme in kazalnike bilo treba oblikovati, da bi bolje odražali uspešnost politike, dodano vrednost in njene rezultate.
Finally, Cohesion Policy must focus more on results, with performance criteria reflecting the nature of the interventions and policy objectives.
Prvič, kadar govorimo o nujnosti celostnega pristopa, je treba poglobljeno oceniti, kako se trenutno izvajajo strukturni skladi.
Finding consensus around new evalu-
Posebno se je treba osredotočiti na nedavno ločitev razvoja podeželja od evropske kohezijske politike.
