Abstract
In this chapter we study the possibilities of economic integration between Western and Eastern Europe. The first section contains a theoretical analysis which attempts to fulfil two requirements: to take into consideration not only the discussion in the literature, but also the social, political and economic relations. Given the space limitations, this can be accomplished only at the price of severe omissions in both areas.
