Abstract
Over the next decade, the great challenge for the world economy will be learning how to manage the process of integrating the large number of economies in transition (Ets) into the global system. Throughout Central and Eastern Europe, countries are transforming their economies by implementing far-reaching, outward-oriented policies. The world market is therefore the fulcrum by which these countries will elevate themselves out of a low-growth, mostly inward looking economic development. A friendly global market and international organizations responding to the economic, political and social aspects of these economies will be essential to their prospects.
