Abstract

Many institutional, economic and policy changes have occurred in Europe over the last two decades, within a world that in the meantime was rapidly ‘globalizing’ and where new competitors were making their appearance. The most important changes as regards Eastern (or CEEC) countries concerned: (i) the fall of the Berlin wall (1989), with the subsequent complex and diversified transition processes, (ii) the further EU enlargements (with particular reference to 2004 and 2007) and attainment of deeper integration, with the adoption of a monetary union (since 1999) in the Euro-zone, progressively extended also to the New Member States (NMS). Recently the 2008–2009 global crisis and recession also significantly affected the CEECs, especially those (small) countries with a higher degree of openness.1
