There are significant differences in the economic growth trajectories of Western, Central and Eastern Europe since the beginning of the democratic movements of the early 1990s. It may be observed that the more developed the region, the lower the growth rate.

Los estados pudieron haber reaccionado de forma diferente a las reformas estructurales emprendidas desde los años ochenta, modificando su ciclo económico con respecto al nacional. La metodología para investigar esta relación es el análisis estocástico de series de tiempo, ya que permite identificar los momentos de variación en media y varianza de una secuencia temporal. Los resultados señalan que es imprescindible tomar en cuenta la posibilidad de cambio estructural cuando se valora la evolución relativa de los ciclos …
