46. ANALYSIS CONCERNING SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF EU MEMBER STATES MEASURED BY GDP PER CAPITA ACCORDING TO AVAILABLE DATA
For the countries that started to undergo political transformation in the 1990’s, the project of joining the European Union was a social, economic and political priority. After initial changes, some countries of Central-Eastern Europe initiated the accession process in the late 1990’s. The European Union started to accept those new members in 2004. The accession process started in 2004 and continued in 2007 and 2013. The cohesion policy applied within the EU1 has resulted in considerable economic growth which can be analyzed based on GDP per capita. Europe is still experiencing economic growth, with the accelerated progress being particularly noticeable in new member states. Both national data (publications by Poland’s Central Statistical Office – GUS), and data collected by Eurostat, make it possible to verify the thesis on the sustainable socio-economic development of EU Member States.
