Economic and Banking System Development Trends and Prospects for Countries in Transition

By Irakli Kovzanadze

Transition countries have become one of the most dynamic segments of the global economy in recent years. With economic growth rates at considerably higher percentages than those of the world economy, these countries are a strong and vital element of global stability.

Professor Irakli Kovzanadze, a doctor of economic sciences, provides a comprehensive analysis of the socioeconomic factors of development in transition countries with regard to history and geopolitics. He specifically analyzes the stages, legalities, and particulars of economic and banking system progress and considers the impact of financial globalization on these countries during a transition-to-market economy. Kovzanadze's study delves into the progress and problems relating to integration of Central and Eastern European countries into the European Union and includes detailed scrutiny of the trends and prospects of economic and banking system development in Central and Eastern Europe, the Baltic region, and former Soviet Union countries with particular emphasis on economic growth in Georgia.

Kovzanadze's careful examination of the dramatic events that have occurred in transition countries during the last few years will promote further discussion within the banking, macroeconomics, and geopolitical communities on the innovative ways to reform an economy in countries in the midst of change.
