The foreign direct investment movement is becoming increasingly important nowadays. Various studies are conducted to determine the influence of foreign direct investments on certain countries. That is why it is important and useful to evaluate and compare how foreign direct investments affect the economic indicators of the Baltic countries - countries having similar economies. Methods used in the analysis are: logical comparative and generalization methods, systematic literature analysis and methods of mathematical statistics. The results have showed that foreign direct investments have positive influence on economies through gross domestic product and labour productivity growth in all Baltic countries, though foreign direct investments do not influence the unemployment rate in all Baltic countries

Economic indicators provide much information concerning the functioning of an enterprise. Their usefulness depends also on decision-makers' comprehension of structural and semantic connections existing between indicators. Visualization of a semantic network in the topic map allows users to more swiftly notice and understand various relations. The main goal of this paper is to discuss the research on heuristic evaluation of visualization in the semantic searching for economic information. This study consists of three experiments with the participants. We used the two author’s applications of the ontologies for return on investment indicator and for early warning system. In this paper we analyze and compare the results of these experiments.

The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the Croatian economy and discover how it might be affected by the EU Accession of 2013. The paper describes Croatian integration path in the last decades and reviews the country’s main economic indicators and foreign trade. Moreover, it focuses on the economic changes related to the EU accession. We show that the EU accession will most likely be beneficial for the Croatian economy. With regard to the accession, adaptability of Croatian agriculture sector and privatization of state owned companies are identified as vulnerable points. One way or another, the EU accession of such small economy as Croatia is not going to have any substantial impacts on the EU economy as such.

In the dynamic environment of global markets, understanding the complexity of the relationships between economic indicators and consumer behaviour, which can be deliberately influenced by targeted communication activities, is becoming a decisive competitive advantage in achieving economic prosperity for businesses. The aim of the study is, based on market data correlation, to explain and approach the interrelations of selected economic attributes and metrics of consumer behaviour. The inquiry is conducted in the scope of optimisation determination of the allocation of the purchase gradient of a business unit in the context of maximising the effect of communication and service activities oriented towards achieving economic prosperity of the business entity. The focus of the study reflects the application of the interconnectivity of market predisposition, characteristics of the target group and geographic servicing in the form of localisation of the business unit in the paradoxical situational model of Hotelling’s Law. The result of the study confirms the leveraging effect of transactional increase and the rationale of localised communication effect for influencing consumers’ purchase decision-making processes in the purchase pairing of a business unit.

Opracowanie przedstawia wyniki badania wzrostu gospodarczego w Europie Środkowo‑Wschodniej w ciągu ostatnich 25 lat. Gospodarka może być uważana za istotny temat analiz w każdym kraju, ale jest szczególnie interesująca w przypadku krajów rozwijających się. Jednym z podstawowych dążeń Unii Europejskiej jest konwergencja państw członkowskich, czyli zmniejszanie dysproporcji rozwojowych, co można osiągnąć poprzez szybszy wzrost gospodarczy krajów słabiej rozwiniętych. Teoria wzrostu jest jednym z głównych tematów w ekonomii. Jej ogromne znaczenie wynika z tego, że chęć rozwoju jest jedną z głównych sił napędowych ludzkości. Celem badania jest wskazanie istotnych różnic między ścieżkami rozwoju jedenastu krajów członkowskich Unii Europejskiej z Europy Środkowo‑Wschodniej oraz cech wspólnych. Po uprzednim przedstawieniu teorii wzrostu, pokazano osiągnięcia w obszarze wzrostu badanych państw członkowskich z Europy Środkowo‑Wschodniej. W badaniu wzięto pod uwagę PKB per capita, liczbę ludności, migracje, wskaźnik aktywności zawodowej, wskaźnik zatrudnienia, stopę bezrobocia, bezpośrednie inwestycje zagraniczne oraz otwartość handlu zagranicznego.

The study investigates the economic growth in Central and Eastern Europe in the last 25 years. The economy can be regarded as a substantial topic in any country, but it is even more interesting in developing countries. One of the basic ideas of the European Union is the convergence between member states, namely the reduction of development disparities, which can be achieved through faster economic growth in less‑developed countries. Growth theory is one of the main topics in economics. Its significant importance is because the desire for development is one of the main driving forces of mankind. The aim of the study is to reveal the crucial differences and common features between the growth paths of the eleven Central and Eastern European member states of the European Union. After presenting growth theories, the growth performance of the examined Central and Eastern European member states is pinpointed. During the research, GDP per capita, population, migration, activity rate, employment rate, unemployment rate, foreign direct investment and foreign trade openness are considered.

Stemming from assumption that Gross Domestic Product is an index oversimplifying economic development and not reflecting socio-economic development, the paper presents conceptualization, operationalization and estimation of Balanced Development Index (BDI), concerning both economic and social development in Poland. Actual values of this index as well as its four composite components (middle-level indexes) are presented for 1999-2013. A statistical model allowing estimation of BDI values as well as short-term forecasts is proposed alongside with the concept of balanced development. Application of this model for 1999-2016 is presented.

This paper presents interdisciplinary research on the transformation of Polish society and the economy. A new composite Balanced Development Index (BDI) has been constructed and applied in a ‚beyond GDP’ paradigm to analyse Poland’s socio-economic development during the 1999-2014 period and to make predictions for 2015-2017. Four groups of detailed indicators-two economic ones (external and internal) and two social ones (concerning the objective and subjective current situation, and public expectations for the future)- are used to construct four middle-level indexes, which are subsequently aggregated into the general BDI index. The congruency between the four middle-level indexes is interpreted in terms of the balance relevant for future socio-economic development. The validity of the index is proven by its high correlation with the psychological conditions of society. The results indicate a less optimistic picture of development in Poland than is provided by the GDP, which has been constantly growing.

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest próba oceny funkcjonowania programu „Rodzina 500+”, który wszedł w życie 1 kwietnia 2016 roku na mocy Ustawy o pomocy państwa w wychowywaniu dzieci (Dz.U. z 2018 r. poz. 2134). Program w swoich założeniach miał spełnić trzy zadania: ograniczenie ubóstwa, poprawę sytuacji materialnej polskich rodzin oraz zwiększenie dzietności społeczeństwa. Na podstawie dostępnych danych dokonano porównania Programu „Rodzina 500+” z innymi systemami wsparcia dla rodzin w Unii Europejskiej. Dokonano również oceny wybranych wskaźników ekonomicznych w Polsce oraz w Unii Europejskiej w latach 2015 – 2018.

The aim of this article is an attempt to evaluate the functioning of the "Family 500+" programme, which came into force on 1 April 2016 as the Act on State aid in bringing up children (Journal of Laws of 2018, item 2134). The assumptions of the programme were to fulfil three tasks: reducing poverty, improving the financial situation of Polish families and increasing the fertility rate of the society. On the basis of available data, the "Family 500+" programme was compared with other support systems for families in the European Union. Selected economic indicators in Poland and the European Union in the years 2015-2018 were also evaluated.

The article attempts to present a neglected feature of Gross Domestic Product. Our thesis is that the GDP is not a proper way to portray economic activity with its relation to unemployment. We also believe that GDP is not an appropriate measure to indicate economic growth.

W tym artykule użyto przykładu Republicki Kirgiskiej dla analizy dwóch konkurencyjnych perspektyw na rolę Euroazjatyckiej Unii Gospodarczej (EUG). Perspektywa realistów utrzymuje, że EUG jest narzędziem rosyjskiej hegemonii w regionie i jest raczej narzędziem politycznym niż gospodarczym, stworzonym, aby służyć rosyjskim interesom narodowym kosztem pozostałych członków EUG. Perspektywa instytucjonalizmu liberalnego, ukazuje sprawę odwrotnie, postrzega EUG jako regionalną organizację integracji gospodarczej, która jest korzystna dla wszystkich członków. Analizując przypadek kirgiski, jasne staje się, że jest zbyt wcześnie, żeby określić, która z dwóch wymienionych perspektyw jest prawidłowa, jako że dane wskazują obecnie na prawidłowość tych dwóch podejść.

This paper uses the case of Kyrgyz Republic to analyze two competing views concerning the role of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). The realist view claims that the EAEU is a tool of Russian hegemonic power over its region of infl uence and interprets is as a primarily political rather than economic organization designed to serve Russia’s national interests at the expense of those of other members. The liberal institutionalist view, on the other hand, sees the EAEU as a new regional organization of economic integration that is benefi cial for all members. Analyzing the case of the participation of the Kyrgyz Republic in this union makes it clear that it is still too early to determine which perspective is correct as there is evidence in support of both.
