The past EU enlargements open different questions. Why EU has performed five enlargements in the past and why it is at present even envisaging future integration enlargements? The next question is “ How the theory and practical integration evidences could explain and support the past and future integration enlargements« ; ; ? According to “ j-curve” logic each reform of the integration – including enlargements – could create, after its initial drop, a substantially higher GDP growth rate in comparison to long term growth rate possible when no change in the structure or functioning of economic integration happens. Dilemmas of such nature are intensified with the EU enlargements of 2004 and 2007. The paper show some possible ways of searching the answers to the above questions. In the first part it deals with development of the theoretical background of economic integration issues starting with the dilemmas about the theory of the second best solution. Paper shows that the theory and actual international trade environment have changed substantially after initial ideas of customs union creation in Europe. Changes are giving new possibilities of explaining the rational for economic integration efforts and as well new ways of presenting the integration effects on EU member countries. Following the idea of economic rational linked to EU integration and to its enlargement the paper presents and comments selected economic indicators related on integration effects specifics for Slovenia - recorded after the EU enlargement 2004. |
