First, it explores them from an EU-27 perspective by assessing the incidence of economic growth for 242 regions NUTS 2. Using Eurostat data and following both crosssectional and time series approaches (2019-2023), results show that, while regional inequality decreases with growing GDP per capita, regional polarization is more persistent and does not necessarily follow the same rule. The paper also delivers an assessment of sigma-convergence and regional polarization for regions NUTS 2 în European Union, with findings pinpointing the importance of spatial models (which is contributing considerably to regional inequality levels), but also its complementarity with sigma-convergence measures (as regional inequality trajectories are not necessarily associated with spatial models trajectories).otherterritorial modelsregional inequalitiesmultiple crisesresilienceArticle
