Abstract

By analyzing data provided by sources such as Eurostat, OECD, the World Bank, and Transparency International, I investigate how accession to the European Union affects a country's economy. Variables such as location, economic structure, foreign investment, and government corruption can have a great effect on how a state's economy grows after accession to the European Union. By examining the average annual growth rate, along with other factors, one can explain how accession to the European Union has affected countries such as Poland, Romania, and Hungary.
