| Abstract. | As long as the countries transformed their economies, the demand for crossborder cooperation increased. The development of market economies especially in East European countries was joined by the increase of private companies and their expansion in these countries. The subsequent effect was the increase of disparities between the levels of economic development especially in the border areas (Hudak, 1996). Having in view the specific aspects, each country confronts certain social, geopolitical, economical, ecological or other kind of problems. The solution for these can be found and practiced by decisions for efficient economic policies. The economic policies from two or more related countries are not always compatible, which may lead to conflicts. The specificity of the crossborder areas can be embodied in certain models. Using as study case the Romania-Ukraine-Republic of Moldova crossborder area, we propose an intuitive model, 3H, that combines three layers – the one of center-periphery approach, the one of complex systems and the last of the hysteresis effect, further having a scenario analysis for the research geographic area. The 3H model can be explored at different complexity levels as far as concerns the research area of the proposed paper and it can be translated and approached similarly for any other geographic area of interest. |
