Introduction

Abstract

The papers that make up this volume were presented at the conference on Turkey, Central and East European (CEE) countries and the EU, held at Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey, on 9–10 March 1996. A legal structure that promotes entrepreneurship, competition and the institution of prudent monetary and fiscal policies is a prerequisite for membership of the EU. This volume analyses these and related issues in the context of the Turkish and CEE economies.
