dc.description.abstractThe contribution solves the problem of alternative access towards evaluating of competitiveness of NUTS 2 regions in the Czech Republic. In the absence of mainstream views on the assessment of competitiveness, there is sample room for the presentation of individual approaches to its evaluation. The basic aim of the contribution is due to the method of analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and aggregation of individual priorities to define the position of NUTS 2 regions in closed programming period of 2000 – 2006 years. The sense of applying the method will be setting the order of NUTS 2 regions reflecting their competitiveness reached for the year, based on selected criteria, which are employment rate, gross domestic product, gross domestic expenditures on research and development, gross fixed capital formation, knowledge intensive services, net disposable income and patents indicators. We can obtain the idea of mutual competitive position of these regions by applying the method. The analytic hierarchy process is a concrete method for multicriteria decision making which uses pair-wise comparison matrices to calculate weights (priorities) of given objects (criteria or alternatives to be evaluated). These individually determined priorities will be aggregated into group priority vector which will serve as basis for further computations of our problem. The macro-regional indicators are chosen based on expert estimation regarding to accessibility of relevant statistic data. Based on the application of the method we can gain detailed view on regional competitiveness of regions by way of quantitative characteristics which can lead to more precise definition of reached competitiveness of NUTS 2 regional units in the European Union.en
