GLOBALIZACIJA I GOSPODARSKI RAST U ZEMLJAMA SREDNJE I ISTOČNE EUROPE : Diplomski rad

Globalizacija je pojam koji izaziva kontroverze i brojne rasprave meĊu ekonomistima. Još uvijek nije postignut konsenzus oko uĉinaka globalizacije na gospodarski rast i konvergenciju dohodaka. Posebno interesantan uzorak za istraţivanje ove veze predstavljaju zemlje Srednje i Istoĉne Europe koje su u procesu tranzicije naglo globalizirane. Ispostavilo se kako opća razina globalizacije u razdoblju nakon 1990. godine ima statistiĉki znaĉajan utjecaj na gospodarski rast navedenih zemalja. Uz opću razinu globalizacije u radu se analizira i utjecaj pojedinih dimenzija globalizacije na gospodarski rast. PotvrĊena je pozitivna veza razine ekonomske globalizacije, koja se ogleda u stvarnim ekonomskim tijekovima te smanjenju restrikcija slobodnoj trgovini, i gospodarskog rasta u analiziranim zemljama Srednje i Istoĉne Europe. Socijalna i politiĉka globalizacija prema ovom istraţivanju nemaju znaĉajan utjecaj na gospodarski rast.Globalization is a term that causes controversy and numerous discussions among economists. There is still no consensus about the effects of globalization on economic growth and income convergence. A particularly interesting pattern for exploring this relationship are the countries of Central and Eastern Europe that were rapidly globalized in the process of transition. It turned out that the general level of globalization in the post-1990 period has a statistically significant impact on the economic growth of these countries. Along with the general level of globalization, the paper also analyzes the impact of individual dimensions of globalization on economic growth. A positive relationship has been established between the levels of economic globalization, which is reflected in real economic flows and the restrictions on free trade, and growth in the analyzed countries of Central and Eastern Europe. Social and political globalization in this research has no significant impact on economic growth
