The foreign trade of the transition economies

Article Abstract:

The transition economies, those of eastern Europe and the nations of the former Soviet Union, enjoyed rapidly growing foreign trade in 1995. In the first six months of 1995, the value of exports from the transition economies rose by about one third, while the value of imports into those countries rose about 30%. Eastern Europe's strong economic recovery and the western market economies' steady growth fueled the east's trade growth.

Outward processing trade between the European Union and the associated countries of Eastern Europe: the case of textiles and clothing

Article Abstract:

The general increase in trade between the European Union (EU) and eastern Europe has included significantly higher outward processing trade (OPT). OPT, concentrated in apparel, textiles, and other labor-intensive sectors, accounted for 18.5% of eastern Europe's exports to the EU in 1994, and eastern Europe accounted for 37% of the EU's OPT imports. OPT between the EU and eastern Europe in the 1988-1994 period is examined.

Foreign trade of the transition economies

Article Abstract:

An overview of the foreign trade situation in eastern Europe's transition economies in 1996 is presented. The transition economies' foreign trade growth slowed sharply, in the year's first six months, due to weak demand for imports in western Europe, the appreciation of eastern European currencies, and the region's slow rate of industrial restructuring.
