Předběžná náplň práce

The study aims to fill the gap in the current debate on the determinants in the post-communist countries by providing an econometric analysis of the institutional factors affecting investment inflows into 11 transition economies, namely the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, and Croatia covering a time span of 21 years from 1993‒2013. For a better assessment of the specific institutional environment, I grouped the countries according to their geographical position and provided a comparative analysis of the results obtained in each group of countries.
