    Abstract

    Since its inception, the European integration was based on the principles of market economy and development. Elements of "development integration" were present already within the Six for the Italian Mezzogiorno received special resources to narrow the development gap between this part of the Community and other, more developed regions. Each of the four following enlargements represented a mix of market and development integration, evidently, with changing proportions due to the development level of the joining country or countries. This paper is focusing on three issues. First, a critical overview of earlier quantitative assessments of the costs of enlargement is provided. The second chapter develops a wider framework of how to interpret costs and benefits. In chapter three, current approaches to the financing of Eastern enlargement will be discussed with special regard to the changing financial situation within the present framework of the European Union.
