Borşa-Vişeu Mining Area. Effects of the Policy of Disadvantaged Areas. The policy of the disadvantaged areas was a component of the regional development policy in Romania between 1998 and 2010. It aimed to delineate those areas with serious economic and social issues mainly generated by industrial restructuring in order to take specific measures to revive them. Borşa-Vişeu mining area is one of the 38 disadvantaged areas that were identified in Romania. The present article aims to emphasize the way in which the status of disadvantaged area had effects on the economic development of the two towns, part of the area. Therefore, the companies that invested in the area once it was declared a “disadvantaged area” were analyzed, along with the new jobs, the total value of investments and the way these influenced (in a positive or negative manner) the decrease of the unemployment rate and the economic revival through activities from new economic fields. The conclusion is that a relatively high number of companies invested in the area during its existence as a disadvantaged area, yet they preferred those economic branches that were traditional and had an easy access to raw material, namely towards the Manufacture of wood and wood products.
