Abstract

After 40 years of socialism and political as well as economic isolation, most of the countries of Central and Eastern Europe share despite their diversity one common goal: political and economic reintegration into the free world and especially into Europe as democratic societies with market economies that participate as equal partners in the international division of labor.2

La stabilité ne constitue pas une “potion magique” qui résoudra tous nos problèmes, mais c’est tout de même un facteur extrêmement important.

(Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz)1

Cited from an interview with the president of the National Bank of Poland in Le Figaro (2 June 1992).

The views expressed are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the Austrian National Bank.
