Abstract

The aim of this paper is to conduct a growth accounting exercise for twentyseven transition economies in Central and Eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States. The analysis is divided into two parts. In part one we discuss the most salient features of these countries' growth paths between 1990 and 2003. The objective of the second part is to establish what proportion of the real GDP growth resulted from increased inputs of labor and capital and what was the contribution to growth of increased productivity of these factors (TFP). Our analysis has shown that changes in TFP were the most important driving force behind the GDP growth in former socialist countries.
