Abstract: Romania has 18 territorial entities known as "lands" within its territory, with series of specific features making the difference between them and the surrounding areas. These are not artificially created territories, but ones with a regional coherence expressed in the objective reality, both on territorial and especially mental aspect of the respective area's inhabitants. Because of their territorial reality, spatial planning could make the most of the quality of "land'' by imposing them as project territories. The present study suggests an association of three major concepts as endogenous development, local development and project territory, in order to propose Beius Land as project territory, trying thus to promote a different spatial planning approach. This would eventually serve to the local implementation of sustainable development strategies, with practical applicability and utility, as tools for spatial planning professionals and local decision makers. The !
main reason for proposing Beius Land as project territory is to keep the traditional identity marks of this area, fully developed during the 19th century. The more recent socio-economic transformations, related to the Communist Regime, the difficult transition to the market economy, the admission into the European Union and the globalisation, contributed to the fading of some of this identity marks. Nowadays there are still being maintained elements related to the traditional Professions and crafts. Within an adequate strategic planning process, this new untapped side of Beius Land identity (which is a general asset of the land-type spaces) could be capitalized in order to map out a sustainable evolution direction which would conserve the authenticity, and offer alternative economic development anchored into the territorial reality.
