Summary: International economic relations consist of flows of trade, financing, investments and information, and multilateral and bilateral support programs. The Croatian economy, of a small country with a small market, was even in the past directed to have strong links with them. The project is based on the fact that due to its characteristics, the Croatian economy must be open towards all these flows and only by connecting with them it could develop optimally. The project will also be used to define possible options of such connections, in order to choose the most suitable for the Croatian economy. The Croatian economy operates independently and defines its position in international economic relations since recently. On the other hand, it is only by articulating its relations with the international environment, adopting the strategy of development of an open economy, that the Croatian economy can begin to transform its structure, define its developmental identity, and find an optimal place for itself in the international division of labour. The Croatian economy and all its agents must continually follow developments in the world economy. The project is designed to be implemented through four sub-projects: (a) Analysis of main macroeconomic aggregates in the world economy and events that affect them (b) Structural changes in the world economy (c) The position of the Croatian economy in the international division of labour (d) Theory of market transformation of centrally planned economies

Keywords: Croatia, world economy, restructuring, macroeconomic aggregates, theory of economic analysis, reconstruction, financial cooperation, privatisation, regional development policy, role of state

Research goals: The aim of the project is to identify guide-lines for the long-term promotion of economic relations of Croatia and other countries, which would serve to decision makers to make short and long-term decisions. The results of the project will also be used to prepare negotiations, as well as further cooperation with international economic institutions, as well as with regional and sub-regional economic integrations. The project will help certain governmental and non-governmental institutions to make annual programmes on multilateral and bilateral level. The most significant scientific contribution of the project is that, by means of partial and comparative analyses of global processes, it has thrown light on the most significant theoretical and practical aspects which are relevant for the position of Croatia in the international community. A special contribution is that the research has brought together a significant number of competent collaborators from other institutions who, together with those working on the project, make up a highly expert team with significant references for further joint work. Significant international communication has been achieved by the joint research of competent experts on transformation and regional development issues from all over the world. This has been achieved both through cooperation on joint projects and through the active participation of collaborators of the project at international gatherings. A special contribution to this cooperation is the publication of several issues of the journal "Razvoj/Development International" with contributions by collaborators of the project.
