The aim of the study was to show the international position and competitiveness of the Polish economy rece in comparison with the economies of other countries newly admitted to the European Union in 2007-2017. It was found that in the ranking of competitiveness of the World Economic Forum analysed countries were above the thirtieth position. In the last decade there has been a deterioration of the competitive position in most of the analysed countries, while Poland has improved its position by 19 positions. Poland is currently in 36th position. The main weakness of the Polish economy is its insufficient innovativeness, insufficient labour market efficiency and imperfection of institutions supporting the economy.

The focal point of the article is the future of the European Union that has been challenged by the deepest systemic crisis in its history. The world economic and financial crisis became merely a catalyst for those problems that had existed earlier and had not been addressed properly by the EU leadership. The author argues that the EU crisis can be overcome only by new common efforts of its member-states and new integrationist projects.

Abstract Subject and purpose of work: This paper studies the process of integration of Poland in the EU Single Market. It makes use of official statistics from a wide range of institutions (IMF, OECD, Eurostat, and Statistics Poland) in order to define structural patterns, shedding light on the overall integration of the country with the rest of the world. Materials and methods: The results show the structural evolution of the Polish economy, mainly in terms of its integration process within the EU Single Market. Results: The Single Market has indeed provided an urge for Poland’s integration. Conclusions: Poland can so far be considered a success story in the process of integration in the EU Single Market.

Estonia is an example of a country, which from the beginning of its transformation employed rigid course regime in the form of a currency board. After successful suppression of inflation in the first decade of transformation one could expect, that after joining the European Union and the ERMII system Estonia will soon become a member of the Euro area. However within the next few years of economic development Estonian economy could not fulfill the condition of stability of prices. Only in the time of the World Economic Crisis and Estonian great economic breakdown all criteria of convergence were satisfied. In January 2011 the country will become a member of the monetary union. The aim of this paper is to answer the question, whether processes of inflation in Estonian economy were conditioned by the presence of a rigid currency board system. One will examine here, whether there occurs - postulated in theory - convergence of inflation pace between a country employing a currency board system and a country with a reserve currency.

The article presents the results of an analysis which attempts to identify the most important factors determining changes in the Polish economy’s internationally competitive position compared to the other new member states of the European Union (EU-10) in the years 2004-2017. The hypothesis that, among the EU-10 states, Poland belongs to those where varied effects of membership have clearly occurred has been put forward. This has greatly influenced the formation of the internationally competitive position of the economy.  In the research, analysis of the secondary data concerning the pillars of the economy’s competitiveness specified in the Global Competitiveness Report has been applied. This has been compiled by the World Economic Forum. The article ends with a summary of the most important conclusions drawn from the presented analysis.

The article presents the results of an analysis aimed at assessing the effects of fundamental factors (pillars) on the international positions and competitiveness of the economies of Poland and the other Visegrad Group (V4) countries. It attempts to verify the hypothesis that in shaping their international competitive position, the V4 economies should rely more on efficiency enhancers as well as innovation and sophistication factors. The competitive positions of the economies covered  and the changes thereof were determined on the basis of the Global Competitiveness Report (GCR) editions published by the World Economic Forum. The period under examination includes the years 2004–2017, but owing to the lack of comparable data, it was narrowed to the years 2006–2017. The article ends with a summary of the most important conclusions from the analysis.

Competitiveness is not clearly defined and there are different methods of measuring it. Analysis of the level of competitiveness on a macro scale is of interest to many entities. Competitiveness rankings are published in the Global Competitiveness Report prepared by the World Economic Forum (WEF), among others. 137 countries have been included in the WEF’s 2017–2018 Report. A country’s position in this ranking depends on many factors, classified in 12 pillars. In the group of 10 countries with the highest ranking, there are changes in order compared to the previous year, but the composition of this group did not significantly change. In this ranking, Poland was 39th. This is relatively high compared to 2008, in which it ranked 53rd out of 134 countries. In the future, further growth of the competitiveness of the Polish economy may depend on, among other things, the professionalism of managerial staff and on the shift to product competitiveness. It is also necessary to share knowledge between the university and the business sectors and between companies themselves.

The objective of this study is to show the influence of world economic crisis on economic situation of Polish food industry and competitiveness of Polish food producers. The study is an analysis based on statistical data. A complement of the analysis is a theoretical consideration based on topical literature and the author’s own reflections. Because of development of world economy globalization processes, world economic crisis has an influence on every country in the world, both the most advanced and developing ones. The confidence in banking system has been decreasing along with a dramatic slowing down of the economic development and the economic recession. It was manifested, first of all, in the most advanced countries of the world (USA, EU, Japan) and in a part of developing countries (Russia, Ukraine). The consequences of world economic crisis are also reflected in Polish economy, but it was resistant to the crisis phenomena and there was only a slowdown of its development (from among all countries of the EU, only in Poland there was an increase of GDP). Even less sensitive to the crisis was the Polish food sector, including food industry. It was the branch of industry in which the slowdown of production development, national demand and export, with the meaningful reduction of import and investments were only transitory phenomenon (2008). After short-term deteriorations of results, food industry has even reached record economic-financial results (2009-2010). The general animation of the Polish economy has also come back. This indicates the return of developmental tendencies in Polish food industry. The coming years should be a period of further development of this sector, but at a slower rate than in the years of Poland integration with the European Union (2003-2007).

The article presents the results of an analysis that compares changes in Poland’s competitive position against the backdrop of the Visegrad Group (V4) countries and the Baltic States (BS3) in the post-accession period (2006–2017). This type of study has not been presented in detail in the available literature before. Therefore, the article may significantly contribute to bridging the gap. The study employs a comparative analysis of secondary data concerning the indices and pillars of economic competitiveness described in The Global Competitiveness Reports prepared by the World Economic Forum. An important element of the examination was the endeavour to identify major determinants of those developments. The article ends with a summary of the most significant conclusions from the analysis presented. As confirmed by the examination, the countries covered differed widely regarding the improvement of their competitive positions in the post-accession period.
