Un balance de la política de cohesión europea en Euskadi

This article reviews the implementation of the Cohesion Regional Policy of the European Union in the Basque country. It begins recalling the initial support of the FEDER and it continues telling, one by one, the different periods of multiannual program. It values the reach of the Basque experience in the aspect of the community integration, but also wants to bring out the difficult, and in some occasions impossible, compatibility of the regional interest with the interest of the state. It shows how the interest of a region in industrial decline in a cohesion country has not been among the priorities. Nowadays, although all the regions are beneficiaries of the Common Regional Policy, the structural policy for the more developed regions seems to focus on the momentum of its economic drag capabilities. The agreements for the period 2014-2020 will give their measurements.
