The lecturer will also provide an introductory "immersion" into the Czech economic development since the establishment of the Czechoslovak independent state in 1918 and the main challenges faced after the WW II, especially after the communist takeover in 1948. Thus, the participants will be able to evaluate the post-1989 developments within proper economic and political contexts. Special attention will be given to the current issues in the Czech policy making, especially those related to the evolution of economic environment, fiscal consolidation and regulatory issues within EU27. For instance, attitudes of the Czech policy makers with respect to membership in Eurozone and adoption of Euro will be discussed. |
