This transformation is divided into four periods: an initial recession caused by the transformation; economic growth in the mid-1990s; a recession connected to the currency crisis of 1997; and recovery and growth from 1999 until 2004, when the analysis ends. The examination covers the main aspects of the transformation?an overall view of the process, political transition, economic policy, economic results (GDP development, infl ation, unemployment), changes in outside indicators (balance of payments), privatization, transformation of the fi nancial sector, and changes in the business sector and institutional development.0The book also compares Czech development in this transformative era to those of Poland and Hungary. As in Hungary and Poland, the Czech Republic underwent an exceptional qualitative shift from a system centrally planned to one that was market-based. The book concludes that despite mistakes and hardships, the overall transformation process in Central Europe has been successful. 606 $aBanks and banking$zCzech Republic$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aBusiness enterprises$zCzech Republic$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aCzech Republic$xPolitics and government$y1993- 607 $aCzech Republic$xEconomic policy$y1993- 607 $aCzech Republic$xEconomic conditions$y1993- 610 $aBanks, Political economy, Transition economies, Central and Eastern Europe, Postcommunism. 615 0$aBanks and banking$xHistory 615 0$aBusiness enterprises$xHistory 676 $a330.94371/0511 700 $aZ?i?dek$b Libor$01630287 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809792103321 996 $aFrom central planning to the market$93968496 997 $aUNINA
