Badanie przestrzenno-czasowego zróżnicowania redystrybucji dochodu narodowego brutto Unii Europejskiej w latach 2004-2008

Abstract

The funds provided by Member States of the European Union (EU) are the main source of supplies to the EU budget. The size of the payment depends on the Gross National Income (GNI) of each country. The EU funds are allocated for the implementation of common policies aimed at improving upon life of its citizens through the alignment of the economic, social and territorial disparities between the regions of the Union. The main aim of the research is to conduct statistical analysis of spatial-temporal differentiation of redistribution of EU GNI in 2004-2008. Additionally, the new research methodology differentiation of redistribution of EU GNI based on statistical data analysis methods is elaborated. The mentioned redistribution of EU GNI was based on the relationship between the participation of a given Member State in expenditure on a highlighted area of a common EU policy and the participation of the same country in the creation of the EU's GNI. The research period included the years of Polish membership in the EU. The new research methodology of spatial-temporal differentiation of redistribution of EU GNI was based on various statistical data analysis methods such as the coefficient of spatial potential, model for panel data and an analysis of correspondence.
