This article analyzed the post communist era in the Central and Eastern Europe (GEE) and tested the hypothesis that the FDI contributes to the economic growth of the CEE countries. The first part of this research reflects macroeconomic changes in the post communist CEE and examines GDP per capita and economic growth rate. The second section discusses an inward FDI stock as a percentage of GDP and the third section estimates the impact of the FDI on economic growth in the CEE using an aggregated regression growth model based on the production function. The results show a tremendous influence of the FDI stock on GDP growth in the examined CEE countries. (original abstract)

Autorka bada sytuację krajów Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej po upadku komunizmu. W artykule dowodzi tezy o wpływie bezpośrednich inwestycji zagranicznych (BIZ) na tempo wzrostu w krajach EŚW. W pierwszej części pracy analizuje zmiany makroekonomiczne w krajach EŚW, w tym PKB per capita oraz tempo wzrostu gospodarczego. Dalej punkt ciężkości przeniesiony jest na wartość BIZ jako procent PKB, wreszcie w części trzeciej szacowany jest wpływ BIZ na wzrost gospodarczy w krajach EŚW za pomocą modelu zagregowanej regresji na podstawie funkcji produkcji. Wyniki badań dowodzą ogromnego wpływu BIZ na wzrost PKB w badanych krajach. (abstrakt oryginalny)
