Sažetak
By analyzing the existing strategies, policies and networks at the European and transnational level, there are numerous different documents and initiatives, which may represent frames of development of joint agendas and collaborative projects of metropolitan areas: -The cohesion policy of the European Union is the main instrument of implementing the objectives of economic, social and territorial cohesion. It consumes the second largest part of the European Union budget, including several funds, and it is adjusted to the umbrella strategy of the European Union for the growth and employment ; -The Strategy for the Danube region is a comprehensive strategy of the target macro-region of fourteen European countries, which considers a number of challenges, requires better coordination and cooperation in the priority areas of economic, ecologically sustainable and social regional development, including the priority of improving the mobility and intermodality ; -The strategy of the European Union - Europe 2020 for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth identifies the priorities of the economic, sustainable and social development and management of financial resources ; -The amendment of the Territorial Agenda for 2020, in which the promotion of the polycentric and balanced territorial development is identified as the main cohesion element to strengthen the economic competitiveness of the European Union ; -Regional initiative is CENTROPE as joint initiative of the regions of Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary, with the aim of creating the Central European region, in which cross-border cooperation will become common in all the areas of life, and especially in the four specific areas of development – region of knowledge, human capital, spatial integration, and culture and tourism ; -The initiative Cities for Cohesion as response to the Green Paper on Territorial Cohesion deals with urban dimension of cohesion policy insisting on the implementation of the macro-regional approach.
