DYNAMICS AND STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS OF INTEGRATION PROCESSES IN EUROPE
Abstract
For present candidates from Central and Eastern Europe to a membership in European
Union - it is of most importance to understand the essence of integration processes which Western
Europe undergoes after the World War II. It is so because of the fact that economic integration of
several and of more than so much economies is a venture of utmost complexity and dynamism.
This feature forces constantly to get solved a whole series of structural problems. Dynamics and specificity o f European integration consist in simultaneous alternation of two
processes: firstly - deepening of integration within the framework of European Community and,
secondly - enlarging the number of members of this organisation. Both of these processes, despite
of definitional independence, have exerted their reciprocal influence and - in the history of the UE
which counts already several decades - have together shaped the character of the European Union
as an organisation. Since operational principles for six States-original members could be quite
different than for the Union of 15 members - whereas successive rounds of enlargement can
promptly even increase this number twofold. Closer and closer economic co-operation between
members of the UE do demand next more and more common regulations and politics. As well the
deepening of European integration as changes in ways of this integration - when we only take into
consideration different levels of economic advancement of the candidates - do together change the
character itself of the Union and conditions of admittance of new members, too. It is natural
phenomenon; however, present candidates for a membership of the EU must be aware of the fact
that European Union is in constant and dynamic development process, so - in the very moment of
their admittance its functioning principles can differ to a great extent from those which were in
force ten or twenty years ago.
