Abstract

[From the introduction]. This article examines the development of the DRM in the Central European Free Trade Agreement (CEFTA), concluded in 1992 among the so-called Visegrád countries (Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia).14 The EU’s support was instrumental in the creation of CEFTA and in the facilitation of the further economic integration of the region during the pre-accession process leading to the EU membership. The EU encouraged and inspired CEFTA, indirectly, by providing an institutional model for integration, and directly, by concluding special association agreements to establish free trade areas with CEFTA countries.
