Abstract

The object of this paper is to analyze the characteristics of the in dustrial development of Eastern Europe from 1950 onwards and to indicate the main directions of the industrial growth of the area. Attention is focused on Czechoslovakia, Poland, Hungary, Rumania, Bulgaria, and Yugoslavia; but whenever useful, the discussion is extended to Eastern Germany. The postwar period could be conveniently subdivided in the following way: up to 1948, re construction years; from 1949 to the end of 1953, years of planning on an "all- round" basis, that is of simultaneous growth for all branches of the economy with the aim of reaching "self-sufficiency"; 1954-55, years of significant read justments in the previous pattern of investment and growth; 1955-60, years of the second long-term plans 1 characterized by simultaneity in the launching of most of these plans and by efforts toward co-ordination between the countries of the area at both the level of trade and the levels of outputs of certain commodi ties.
