Economic performance in the transition economies: A comparative perspective

Author

Abstract

The economic performance of the former communist countries has been generally mediocre over the first ten years of transition, and has varied widely between countries, with the Central-East European countries doing best and the CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States) countries doing worst. The key underlying factors determining the pattern of inter-country variation have related to initial conditions and investment, with macroeconomic stabilisation playing an important facilitating role. National S&T systems as such have played no role whatsoever. Copyright , Beech Tree Publishing.
