The new political economy of emerging Europe

"In this second, revised and extended edition the evolution of emerging Europe is analyzed against the background of major changes in the constitutional, fiscal, regional and neighborhood policies of the European Union. The basic points of reference remain, as in the first edition, the global economy and institutionally informed standard economic theory. The book, which in part, or in its entirety, is suited for a textbook, is oriented not only for classroom use, but towards a broad international audience of academics, policy advisors and informed intellectuals with an interest in Central and Eastern Europe and development in general."--BOOK JACKET.
