Abstract

Croatia as a Central European transition economy has acceded to the WTO relatively late (2000). Joining the WTO has been seen as a prerequisite for gaining access to the European regional markets (the EU and CEFTA). More importantly however a membership in the WTO was supposed to provide a framework for restructuring of a wide spectrum of policies and regulation and for changing the role of the state. While WTO allows state-trading, its core philosophy is based on the MFN rules and the national treatment principles. This requires adaptation of different ways of doing business both at the level of enterprises and governments. This is particularly true in the area of government procurement. This paper deals with the different aspects of government procurement.
