| Summary: | The declines in economic activity experienced by Bulgaria, the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic, and Romania in the period since market-oriented reforms were initiated are analyzed.

Second, to what extent have demand-side or supply-side forces been dominant in generating the output decline?. |
