This book identifies differences and similarities between the
formerly centrally planned economies of the Eastern Bloc and those
of Western Europe. The authors use up-to-date information on
East-West trade flows to analyse emerging patterns of industrial
and trade specialisation. They examine in detail the pre- and
post-1989 experience of five different CEE economies: the ex-GDR,
ex-CSFR, Hungary, Bulgaria and Poland. Enterprise-level information
is then used to discuss the impact of the withdrawal of export
subsidies from various types of enterprise in Hungary, the changing
relationships between enterprises and banks in Poland, the
evolution and reform of financial institutions and the vital issue
of financial intermediation and industrial restructuring. The book
ends with an examination of the case for using Western-style
industrial policies in the transition.
