Processes of International Concentration and Co-operation of Companies in Theory and Practice of the Common Industrial Policy of the European Economic Community

The article contains an analysis of main directions of policy pursued by the EEC authorities in relation to processes of concentration and centralization of capital taking place within the area of the EEC. The analysis leads to a conclusion that the goal of this policy is removal of all barriers hampering the phenomenon of international capital ties paving the way for creation of the so-called European capital. Commission Of the EEC treats it as an important element consolidating its position as a nucleus of authorities of the European state to be formed — in its conviction-in the future. However till now the propositions of the Commission aiming at more radical selection of means to promote regrouping of companies on the Common Market scale, were not fully supported by member states, which treat with reserve the process of progressive internationalization of ownership structures. Meanwhile a need for profound changes in the structure of the EEC industry becomes more and more urgent especially in the fields which dynamize the economic growth. The future of common industrial policy depends thus, to a large extent, on system of forces existing between national authorities and supranational institutions.Zadanie pt.
