Summary/Abstract: In 1989, Hungary was seen as the most market-ready economy in Eastern Europe. In termsof its per capita GDP, however, Hungary is yet to catch up to state socialist levels even aftertwo decades, despite incorporation into the European Union and sharply increased globaland European trade flows. The privatisation of the erstwhile socialist state’s property andthe dominance of western Europe-based capital in assembly plant manufacturing hasmeant high import content for exports and weak wage and subcontracting effects for thelocal economy.
