The globalization of industry and innovation in Eastern Europe : from post-socialist restructuring to international competitiveness

edited by Christian von Hirschhausen (Professor of Energy Economics and Public Sector Management, Dresden University of Technology (TU Dresden) and Research Director, DIW Berlin (German Institute for Economic Research), Germany) and Jürgen Bitzer (Free University, Berlin, Germany)

In this important book, industrial and enterprise reform over the last decade in Eastern Europe is critically reviewed in light of increasing Eastern integration into the global economy. The authors argue for the further globalization of Eastern European enterprise networks as a condition for recovery and growth in the region. Empirical evidence is provided from five industrial sectors (car industry, telecommunication, shipbuilding, computers, software), including case studies and international comparisons
