Abstract: This article approaches issues of regional science development, science that analyzes the phenomena and processes related to space, distance and location. One can notice the diversity of theoretical approaches, and these can be grouped into: theories of localization, theories of regional growth and development theories. The evolution of this science was not linear, it has experienced both periods of boom and decay, recording remarkable progresses over time. Along with other disciplines, in the frame of regional science stands the regional economy that studies the optimal location of firms and the territorial economic development. The region is the core of these theoretical concerns, and one of the problems of regional development refers to factors that determine the development of a region. Regarding future research directions, regionalization existing in the EU provides regional science a further opportunity to continue its development.
