“…This is lower than the share of intra-regional trade within the EU or the NAFTA countries. Traditionally, the ASEAN countries have focused on Japan, Europe, and the United States as markets for their exports (Jovanovic 1998). However, in the 1990s there has been a trend toward a growing share of ASEAN intra-regional trade.…”

This paper examines some of the factors related to the formation of a currency union in Southeast Asia. The main part of the paper presents the results of our examination of the correlation of shocks for the Southeast Asian countries using a structural vector autoregression. The shocks are identified using restrictions on the long-run coefficient matrix as suggested by Blanchard and Quah (1989). The correlations of shocks for the EU and NAFTA countries are used for comparison. The Southeast Asian countries are shown to have more strongly correlated shocks than the EU countries. Compared with the NAFTA countries, external shocks are more closely correlated for the ASEAN countries, but the supply and demand shocks are less correlated. Indonesia, Singapore, and Malaysia, in particular, exhibit a high degree of correlation of shocks. Other criteria for monetary union, such as intra-regional trade, openness of the economy, and similarity of monetary policy are also examined.

“…Immediately after the territorial changes in 1993, the Czech prime minister, Vaclav Klaus announced that his country's aims would supersede the common interest. Klaus went so far as to suggest that the Czech Republic would no longer be interested in the Visegrad cooperation since the focus should instead be on cooperating with Western Europe (Jovanovic 1998). Klaus's view can be explained by the fact that even in the mid-1990s, he was convinced that the Czech Republic belonged to the West more than to any other formation, and he dismissed Central Europe as a geopolitical category.…”

The Visegrad Group celebrated its 25th anniversary in February 2016. Established as an initiative of three statesmen from the Central and Eastern European (CEE) region, this cooperation has experienced booms and crises. The aim of this paper is to analyse the function of this regional integration in the years following the end of bipolar system as Visegrad Group members headed down the road to Euro -Atlantic integration. To this end, I apply different theoretical approaches and attempt to explain the influence of key former politicians as well as new scenarios for the Visegrad Group's position in the EuropeanUnion. This analysis also covers the latest foreign policy changes and challenges facing CEE due to the involvement of a wider region that creates a counter -balance to the core EU. Statistical data and official documents from the Visegrad Group's website strengthen these findings.
