Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The financial crisis of 2008-2009 has become the most serious challenge for Central and Eastern European countries, after they had completed the process of post-socialist transformation and became EU Members. The negative impacts of the recession on their important international partners multiplied their own tensions and imbalances which, in some cases, have led to a dramatic decline of the GDP, as well as serious cuts in public spending and personal incomes. The situation within the this group of countries is far from uniform. On the one hand, there is the example of Poland: the only country in Europe that has not gone through a recession. Then, on the other hand, there are the Baltic Republics that have lost 1/5 of their output. Also, the anti-crisis policies implemented in particular countries were strongly differentiated. Keeping in mind all these differences, one may say that these new Member States, on the whole, have confronted the challenges of the crisis bravely and effectively, due to the great adaptability and flexibility of both their political elites and societies. Thus, they may become an example for other EU Member States, which are currently struggling with economic difficulties and strong social protests against necessary but harsh economic measures. This book contains papers presented at a World Bank-sponsored seminar that was held in Warsaw in September 2009, when the crisis was still in full swing. The authors reflect on the general dimensions of the crisis and also report on the particular situations in Central and Eastern European countries, and in the group as a whole."--Publisher's description.
Book Synopsis Turmoil at Twenty by : Pradeep K. Mitra
Download or read book Turmoil at Twenty written by Pradeep K. Mitra and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2009-10-30 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transition economies of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union, among all emerging- and developing-economy regions, have been hardest hit by the global economic crisis of 2008-09. This is partly due to the region s deep integration into the global economy across many dimensions trade, financial, and labor flows. Attempts by countries that came later to the transition to catch up rapidly to Western European living standards at a time when global liquidity was unusually abundant, together with some policy weaknesses, made them vulnerable to reversals in market sentiment. Written on the eve of the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, 'Turmoil at Twenty' analyzes the run-up to the current crisis and addresses a number of key questions related to vulnerability to the recession, expected recovery, and necessary reforms in the region: Did the transition from command to market economies, and the period during which this took place, plant the seeds of vulnerability that made transition countries more prone to crisis than other developing countries? Did the choices made on the road from plan to market shape the ability of crisis-hit countries to recover? What combination of domestic policy reform and international collective action is needed to bring about a recovery and minimize the humanitarian cost of the crisis? What structural reforms are needed today to address the most binding constraints on growth in a world where capital fl ows to transition and developing countries are expected to be considerably lower than before the crisis? 'Turmoil at Twenty' will be of interest to policy makers and their advisers, researchers, and students of economics who seek lessons from the current economic crisis, as well as scholars of the transition.

Book Synopsis Transformation and Crisis in Central and Eastern Europe by : Bruno Dallago
Download or read book Transformation and Crisis in Central and Eastern Europe written by Bruno Dallago and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global financial crisis has provided an important opportunity to revisit debates about post-socialist transition and the relative success of different reform paths. Post-communist Central and Eastern Europe (CEECs) in particular show resilience in the wake of the international crisis with a diverse range of economic transformations. Transformation and Crisis in Central and Eastern Europe offers an in depth analysis of a diverse range of countries, including Poland, Hungary, Russia, Ukraine, Czech Republic and Slovakia. This volume assesses each country’s institutional transformations, geopolitical policies, and local adaptations that have led them down divergent post-communist paths. Chapters take the reader systematically through the evolution of former communist national economic systems, before ending with lessons and conclusions for the future. Subsequent chapters demonstrate that economic performance crucially depends on achieving a sustainable balance between sound institutional design and policies on one hand, and localization on the other. This new volume from a prestigious group of academics offers a fascinating and timely study which will be of interest to all scholars and policy makers with an interest in European Economics, Russian and East European Studies, Transition Economies, Political Economy and the post-2008 world more generally.
Book Synopsis Central and Eastern Europe in the EU by : Christian Schweiger
Download or read book Central and Eastern Europe in the EU written by Christian Schweiger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the onset of the global financial crisis in 2008, the EU has been in almost permanent crisis mode. It is witnessing new dimensions of internal differentiation among its member states, and the migration crisis has shown that the Central and Eastern European countries (CEEs) in particular are slowly but certainly transforming themselves from predominantly passive policy-takers towards becoming more active players in the process of shaping the EU’s governance agenda. This edited volume offers the first comprehensive and critical insight into how the CEEs position themselves in the EU’s changing internal and external environment, their stance towards the European integration process under current crisis conditions, and what political and economic strategies they prioritize.
Book Synopsis Impact of the Economic Crisis in Eastern Europe by : Dobra Iulian
Download or read book Impact of the Economic Crisis in Eastern Europe written by Dobra Iulian and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research paper investigates the differences in the various responses of 10 Eastern European countries to the first financial crisis shock in 2008-2009. While 2009 was a difficult year for all economies, some countries performed better than others: while Latvia decreased its GDP by 18% in a single year, the economy of Poland increased by 1.3% during the same period. While trying to explain the differences in economic performance during the crisis, we look at a large number of possible factors, such as government budget balance, government debt, current account balance, competition in domestic banking, and average growth in the year preceding the crisis.

Book Synopsis The Political Economy of Middle Class Politics and the Global Crisis in Eastern Europe by : Agnes Gagyi
Download or read book The Political Economy of Middle Class Politics and the Global Crisis in Eastern Europe written by Agnes Gagyi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-09 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrary to dominant narratives which portray East European politics as a pendulum swing between democracy and authoritarianism, conventionally defined in terms of an ahistorical cultural geography of East vs. West, this book analyzes post-socialist transformation as part of the long downturn of the post-WWII global capitalist cycle. Based on an empirical comparison of two countries with significantly different political regimes throughout the period, Hungary and Romania, this study shows how different constellations of successive late socialist and post-socialist regimes have managed internal and external class relations throughout the same global crisis process, from very similar positions of semi-peripheral, post-socialist systemic integration. Within this context, the book follows the role of social movements since the 1970s, paying attention both to the level of differences between local integration regimes and to the level of structural similarities of global integration. The analysis maintains a special focus on movements’ class composition and inter-class relationships and the specific position of middle-class politics in movements.
Book Synopsis Crisis and Reform in Eastern Europe by : Ferenc Feher
Download or read book Crisis and Reform in Eastern Europe written by Ferenc Feher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-13 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communism in Eastern Europe is in crisis. Its dimensions are social and economic; its manifestation is political. This volume, a collection of essays by leading authorities, describes the symptoms of the crisis, diagnoses the causes of the malady, and offers alternative scenarios for therapy. A unique dimension of this collection is its avoidance of one-dimensional explanations. The contributors approach the subject from very different angles, and start from very distinct sociopolitical premises. The volume includes original accounts of unexplored aspects of East European communism as well as classic interpretations of the economic crisis and social stagnation that characterize the area. Contributions not only examine the sociopolitical behavior of the ruling apparatus, but also analyze its strategies, political culture, and the opposition. Both the professional and the general reader seeking more information about Eastern Europe will find this volume an extensive, in-depth portrait of the current situation in what many observers predict may develop into the major area of tension in post-World War II Europe.
Book Synopsis Eastern Europe in Crisis and the Way Out by : Christopher Saunders
Download or read book Eastern Europe in Crisis and the Way Out written by Christopher Saunders and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume practitioners and theorists from East and West assess the results of four years of transformation in Eastern Europe. In a general assessment of the stabilisation policies pursued, some authors take a critical view of the 'conventional' monetary and fiscal restrictive programmes which have helped to bring down inflation and to introduce elements of the market economy, but have also left the economies concerned with heavily reduced output and real incomes. An evolutionary strategy of structural transformation, and demand management should play a primary role in recovery from the 'transformational recession'. Further issues discussed are the reform of the financial sector; liberalisation of foreign trade; privatisation and restructuring; and the social aspects of transformation.

Book Synopsis Challenges to Enterprise Performance in the Face of the Financial Crisis by :
Download or read book Challenges to Enterprise Performance in the Face of the Financial Crisis written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2011-06-10 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report addresses the core components of enterprise activity, namely, the factors of production and the public infrastructure to support them. In the period just before the financial crisis, a number of elements, such as access to finance, skills and education of labor, and infrastructure emerged as important obstacles to enterprise growth. The aggregate level of enterprise activity and its productivity largely depend on the availability and quality of these components. The relative importance of these obstacles has evolved over time, reflecting structural reforms and progress in improving the business environment. Some of these constraints may have eased because of the crisis, but their presence during a period of economic growth suggests that there are important, unfinished structural reforms among countries in the ECA region. This report explores the impact of these constraints on firm performance in 29 Eastern European and Central Asian countries. The results show that enterprises in the region face varying levels of pressure depending on their features, location, resources directly accessible to them, and characteristics of country governance and regulatory frameworks. The report takes stock of enterprise sector performance along these three key dimensions near the end of two decades of the transition process. It is therefore critical to understand where firms in these countries stand now in terms of their relative access to finance, labor markets and quality of labor, and infrastructure capacity.
Book Synopsis The Impact of International Economic Disturbances on the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe by : Egon Neuberger

This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Impact of International Economic Disturbances on the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe: Transmission and Response focuses on the transmission of economic disturbances to the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, as well as the policy responses of both to such disturbances. Topics covered include external inflation, balance of trade, and resource allocation, along with the impact of the world economic crisis on intra-CMEA trade. This book is comprised of 16 chapters and begins with an overview of major international economic disturbances during the first half of the 1970s and their transmission to the Soviet Union and Eastern European countries. The following chapters examine the adjustment made by East European economies to external disturbances; external inflation, balance of trade, and resource allocation in small centrally planned economies; whether the Soviet Union was affected by the international economic disturbances of the 1970s; and the relationship between foreign trade and the Soviet economy. The transmission of international disturbances to Yugoslavia, Hungary, and Poland and the responses of each country are also discussed. The final chapter assesses how the energy crisis and Western ""stagflation"" have affected the nature of Soviet-East European political relations in the years 1956-1973. This monograph will be of interest to economists and economic policymakers.
