Abstract

A közép-kelet-európai országok rendszerváltása folyamán az intézmények szerepének és átalakulásának kérdését sokáig elhanyagolták mind az elméleti vitákban, mind pedig a gazdaságpolitikai gyakorlatban. Széles körben elterjedt az a felfogás, hogy a fejlett országok intézményeinek átvétele viszonylag egyszerű, rövid idő alatt megoldja a technikai és hatékonysági elmaradás problémáit. Az elmúlt tíz év során nemcsak az derült ki, hogy a szükséges intézményi átalakítás korántsem egyszerű, hanem az is, hogy a rendszerváltó országok fejlődése és strukturális változása igen különböző módon zajlott le, és eltérő eredményekre vezetett. Ennek nyomán az utóbbi időben nagyobb figyelem irányul az intézmények szerepére és változásaira, mert csak általuk lehet megmagyarázni, mi történt az átmenet során, s hogy mit kell tenni a fejlett országok utolérésének meggyorsítása érdekében az európai integrációhoz való csatlakozás során.
