abstract: 'The article highlights the necessity of inclusive growth and development
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
concept implementation in times of economic and social instability as it
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
is widely recognized as the one that can and should tackle the common
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
long existing problems like poverty, inequality, and insecurity. Thus,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the subject of this research is to compare the patterns of inclusive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
growth and development across economies of Central and Eastern Europe
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(CEE); and to investigate the driving policies and institutions to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
countries'' inclusive growth and development. The research objective is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to highlight policies that would increase equality, economic well-being,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and as a result, the competitiveness of CEE countries. Methods. For this
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
purpose, the comparative analysis of CEE countries'' inclusive growth and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
development patterns was done; and the empirical evaluation was done to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
observe relationship between the Inclusive Development Index and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
indicators that described economic policies and institutional factors
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relevant to inclusiveness. In a comparative analysis and a cross-country
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regression model (for both dependent and independent variables), a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
recently developed by World Economic Forum performance metric was used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results. The main findings suggest that the Czech and Slovak Republics
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
are the best performing among CEE countries in inclusive growth and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
development patterns. On the contrary, Ukraine, Moldova, and Russian
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Federation are the worst. Economic growth of these countries has not
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
transformed well into social inclusion. Still, there is a great
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
potential for all CEE economies to improve their social inclusiveness in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
comparison with EU-28 and Norway (the most inclusive economy in 2018).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results of the empirical research indicate that redistributive fiscal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy has little influence on inclusive growth and development.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nevertheless, it should create a public social protection system that is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
engaged in decreasing poverty, vulnerability, and marginalization
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
without hampering economic growth. Besides, an effective and inclusive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
redistributive state system of CEE economies should accentuate on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
supporting human economic opportunities. According to the results of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regression model, positive strong influence on inclusive growth and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
development is associated with the employment and labour compensation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy that allows people to directly increase their incomes and feel
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
active and productive members of society; the basic services and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
infrastructure policy which is a necessary ground for present and future
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
human and economic development; the asset building and entrepreneurship
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy provides diminishing inequality and rising economic opportunities
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
by fostering medium and small business creation and enlarging
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
possibilities of home and other asset ownership. Altogether these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policies would increase broad-based human economic opportunities and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
consequently both equality, economic well-being, and CEE economies''
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
competitiveness in the long run. The counter-intuitive effect observed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the regression model between education and skills development policy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and country''s inclusive growth and development needs further
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
investigations, as education is important for social mobility and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
decrease in income and wealth inequality.'
