- Filling the gap in urban transport: Private sector participation in transition countries
-
May 15, 2007 09:54
This paper reviews private sector participation (PSP) in urban transport in central and eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States. It documents how the private sector is helping to address service gaps in poorer countries and identifies a strong negative relationship between GDP per capita and the degree of PSP. It also shows that decisions to involve the private sector in public services are driven by resource constraints and the general reform process.
- Transition and international integration in eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union
-
May 15, 2007 09:54
This paper investigates the extent of integration of the transition economies into the world economy. We find that south-eastern Europe (SEE) and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) trade significantly less with the world economy than the accession countries. We use a gravity model to explain why this is the case and conclude that the low quality of economic institutions in the CIS, and hence the high risks associated with trade, explain a considerable proportion of the “trade gap” compared to trade levels in industrialised countries. Moreover, the landlocked nature of many CIS countries (and hence high costs of transport and transit) is another reason for the lack of integration. In SEE these factors play a lesser role and the gravity model is unable to fully explain the lack of integration, which we suggest is a legacy of the region’s recent turbulent past. The paper suggests that a combination of improved market access to western markets and efforts to reduce trade and transit barriers within the region provide the best hope to increase economic integration with the world economy in the future.
