Summary/Abstract: The regional economic structure accumulates discrepancies throughout a longer period of time, which as a rule, makes the removal of its consequences a longterm process as well. The current economic picture of Istria has been formed as a result of the generally existing processes of deagrarization, deindustrialization and tertiarization. But not enough care has been bestowed on compatible and complementary development of different activities and fields resulting in negative consequences for the development of each as well as causing disproportion in the development of certain parts of Istria, this in turn meaning insufficient utilization and evaluation of comparative advantages of land, natural and other resources. In further development it is necessary to intensity the production of existing propulsive activities, but also to complete the current economic structure with new ones which are based on results of the contemporary technical-technological advancement and which have characteristics of both middle and high technologies as a common feature. Within this process it is compulsive to take into consideration the pronounced diversities of different parts of Istria.
