Although the national paths of institution building vary considerably, most countries have undergone phases when regional policy was focused on managing regional labour market and economic crises which were caused by the closure or labour-shedding of large-scale state socialist enterprises dominating regional economies.
Regional development has attracted increasing attention in the enlargement process of the EU because the main channel to support the economic convergence of the Central and East European Countries after their accession will be the structural policy of the EU which is focused on regional development and regional actors.

 Poland hesitates
Before Poland's elections on September 23rd, we predicted that the outgoing government, headed by Solidarity Election Action (AWS), would be soundly beaten and the Democratic Left Alliance/Labour Union (SLD/UP) coalition would sweep to victory.
The AWS was indeed thrashed, unable even to command the necessary 8% of the vote to win representation in parliament, while its erstwhile partner, the Freedom Union (founded by Leszek Balcerowitz, father of Polish reform in 1990 and now central bank governor), suffered the same fate.
Both parties will now probably disband, spelling the dramatic end of Solidarity - the nemesis of communism in Poland - as a political force.
