Abstract

The transition economies which are the subject of this chapter include 26 countries with a total population of 413 million people. These countries are divided into three groups: the 11 countries of Central and Eastern Europe (118 million), the three Baltic States (8 million) and the 12 successor states to the former Soviet Union (287 million). The largest state by far is the Russian Federation with 148 million people, while the smallest is Estonia with only 1 million inhabitants. Twelve other countries, however, have 5 million people or less. Three countries — the Russian Federation, Ukraine and Poland — account for nearly 58 per cent of the total population.
