Unscheduled Flows

Abstract Unscheduled power flows are a serious problem for the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) region. One method of reducing these undesirable flows relies on the use of phase shifting transformers (PSTs). This paper presents how the installation of PSTs on the Polish-German and Czech-German borders affects cross-border power flows in the CEE region, as well as interactions between these devices. The essential parameters proposed for PSTs are based on the effects arising from the application of PSTs on the border between Poland and Germany. The results demonstrate that the use of PSTs in the CEE region can provide effective control of active power flows in tie-lines and significantly reduce unscheduled flows. However, the operation of these devices must be coordinated in order to achieve maximum controllability and to guarantee the secure operation of the interconnected systems.

Uncertain Future

This article deals with the dilemmas faced by trade unions from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) in the context of their relations with western European (EU-15) unions and the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC). The issue of cross-border solidarity is re-examined, taking into account its historical meanings as well as current developments under the pressures of globalisation and EU integration. The article analyses key factors affecting East–West trade union relations – different views within the ETUC, discontinuities in European social dialogue, challenges faced by European works councils and the uncertain future of transnational company agreements. Major dilemmas CEE unions cope with vis-à-vis their western counterparts are outlined. The question of how to achieve a common interest platform for trade unions from Central and Eastern Europe and from western Europe is raised, followed by a suggestion that ‘downward convergence’ in industrial relations is bringing the two regions closer.

The case for the property tax as a significant revenue generator has been well made by many eminent scholars in public finance. It nonetheless continues to remain a tax that is under-utilised in many transition countries. The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether there is the fiscal space to develop the property tax within the eight CEE1 countries that joined the EU in May 2004. Currently, property tax revenues within the selected countries represent approximately 0.5% of GDP, whilst the average for the OECD is just over 1%. This difference in relative importance would appear to suggest that, whilst there is potential for the property tax to create greater revenues, there are structural problems that are preventing this. The paper highlights a number of these problems and suggests mechanisms to address them. It is argued that properly designed, the property tax could crowd out many of the ‘nuisance’ taxes and fees that already exist within local government. Santrauka Nekilnojamojo turto mokestis, kaip neišsenkamas pajamų šaltinis, formuojantis valstybės biudžetą, yra įvairiai ištirtas įžymių mokslininkų. Vis dėlto dauguma pereinamojo laikotarpio valstybių šio mokesčio netaiko. Šio straipsnio tikslas – išsiaiškinti, ar aštuoniose Centrinės ir Rytų Europos valstybėse, įstojusiose į Europos Sąjungą 2004 m. gegužės mėnesį, yra pakankamai fiskalinės erdvės nekilnojamojo turto mokesčiui taikyti. Šiuo metu pajamos, gaunamos dėl nekilnojamojo turto mokesčio pasirinktose valstybėse, sudaro 0,5% BVP, kai EBPO vidurkis viršija 1%. Sąlyginė šio skirtumo svarba gali reikšti tai, kad kol yra galimybė gauti didesnes pajamas taikant nekilnojamojo turto mokestį, tol egzistuos ir struktūrinių problemų, neleidžiančių pasinaudoti šia galimybe. Darbe nurodomos tokios problemos ir siūlomi jų sprendimo mechanizmai. Pateikiami argumentai, kaip tinkamai apskaičiuotas nekilnojamojo turto mokestis gali pakeisti daugumą ,,atsibodusių“ mokesčių ir rinkliavų, kurias vis dar taiko vietiniai valdžios organai.

This paper analyses the interdependencies between state debt and the volume of the public sector’s expenditure, focusing particularly on pro-social spending. These phenomena have been studied in relative values (versus GDP) and in absolute values (per capita). This served as the grounds for an attempt to identify general directions of the public finance policies followed by countries in the Central and Eastern Europe and in selected highly developed countries.
