Since one of  the objectives of the EU is to establish a system ensuring competition  in the internal market is not distorted the question arises if the  CEECs can be integrated into such a competitive system. Which rules of  competition are appropriate to improve the economic integration of the  CEECs and to promote at the same time the enduring transition process?  The relationship between competition policy and East-West integration  is the general theme of the contributions in this book. \u003cbr\u003e  One central issue of this volume is the way of integrating the Central  and East European countries into the EU and supporting their  development by liberalizing trade with the EU. A second issue is the  implementation of a market economy in the post-socialist countries of  Eastern Europe and in particular the aspect of implementing  competition rules at a time when markets are just emerging. The twelve  selected papers are organized in three sections: -Competition Policy  and Integration (part 1); -Competition Policy During Transition (part  2); -Competition, Trade Policy and East-West-Integration (part 3).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1997-10-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792380405\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-6087-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 240\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312510029964,"sku":"9780792380405","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792380405.jpg?v=1771525648","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792380405","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
