This thesis proposes a strategic framework in order to improve the spatial competitive position of the metropolitan area of Zagreb. A country that recently joined the European Union and had to adapt its planning system. The country and its regions, however, remain highly uncompetitive within the European Union. A research is conducted to find the spatial conditions for a competitive environment as well as to find the adequate planning tools. The conditions are found from four theories and a spatial analysis is conducted in order to find the spatial potentials and constraints. The metropolitan fringe is found to have many spatial constraints in relation to the defined criteria and can therefore be regarded as spatially uncompetitive. In order to guide the planning process in a more efficient way, a three layered strategic planning framework is proposed.
