Reviews
'This book provides a useful interim report on export growth in the STEs. The issues addressed in this book will continue to be of importance, particularly as the STEs attempt to compete in markets for more sophisticated products and to upgrade the quality of exports.' -- Eric Bond, Slavic Review '... due to its remarkable and comprehensive analysis, as well as its detailed statistical and empirical background the interested reader can read a collaborative volume of pioneering character when opening this book.' -- Kulgazdasag 'This will be a useful volume for researchers and policymakers. It highlights the complex nature of the impediments to exports and exporting in the transition economies.' -- J.M.C. Rollo, The Economic Journal '... this is a valuable book providing a wealth of country-specific information on the determinants of export performance of firms located in smaller countries in Central and Eastern Europe. The country studies that are included in this book provide a wealth of information on the country-specific factors that affected enterprise incentives, and the strategies that managers pursued to improve the quality of production and penetrate foreign markets. The detailed information on initial conditions and the determinants of export performance of firms located in the smaller countries in Central and Eastern Europe in the early transition period should prove valuable to researchers with an interest in international trade and investment.' -- Bernard Hoekman, Comparative Economic Studies '... this book can be highly recommended, not so much for the novelty of its basic message , but rather for the careful and systematic empirical work that lies behind the various findings and recommendations.' -- Paul Hare, Economics of Transition
