“…Similarly, as other studies point out (Juhász, 2006;Knogler & Lankes, 2012;Gonzálvez, 2016;Cappelen & Peters, 2018), the EU economic model is a mixture of economic patterns, all of them intermingling, as an expression of multiculturalism and functionality, bringing together old economic models recognized as traditional and new ones, prompted by the need for convergence and higher economic efficiency. Other authors (Bolea et al, 2018) also uphold the idea that the European Union architecture and the EU economic space were accomplished by promoting economic, social, and territorial cohesion, sustainable economic development, which have been the main pillars of economic progress and personal welfare.…”

The main research aim is to investigate and test the long-term existence of a balanced relationship (cointegration) between business demographics and economic growth, expressed in terms of real GDP per capita, and to estimate the econometric models expressing relationships between analyzed variables in European economy. Our The study has focused on ten out of the eleven former communist countries, currently members of the European Union, during the 2006–2016 time period. Croatia was left out due to the shortness of the time series available for it, that the study would have required. These findings have significant implications in designing and shaping the future business models in European former communist countries, and increase convergence. The results obtained confirm the existence of long-term balanced relationships between the variables examined, the forms of which however vary from one cluster of states to another.

“…Therefore, determining the conditions for social development is an extremely important research problem in both economic science theory and in economic practice. In the EU, it can be observed that there has been a division into regions characterised by dynamic development and regions that significantly deviate from this level [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. In this situation, it becomes very important to continuously monitor changes in the level of social development of EU countries and to establish the rank occupied by a given country in relation to the others.…”

et al. 2020

Measuring and monitoring the implementation of the concept of sustainable development is an important aspect of the assessment of the functioning of EU countries. One of the pivots of sustainable development is social order, although the literature analysis indicated that multidimensional empirical research in this area is scarce. The main goal of this article was to present the diversity of indicators characterizing social development in EU Member States in the context of progress made by each of them in implementing the concept of sustainable development between 2014 and 2018. The purpose of this article was also to compare Poland with the other EU countries in the years 2014 and 2018. The research procedure consisted of two stages. The first stage was to analyse and assess the regional differentiation of the values of variables explaining social development in the EU in the context of implementing the concept of sustainable development. The second stage envisaged a multidimensional assessment of the diversity of the thematic areas identified in the first stage, as well as a characterization of social development in the EU in the context of implementing the concept of sustainable development. Based on the obtained results, a conclusion could be drawn that many countries are witnessing positive trends which bring them closer to the successful implementation of the sustainable development paradigm—one of the principal priorities of the Europe 2020 strategy, a long-term socio-economic program of the EU. The multidimensional analysis also showed that the level of social development in the context of sustainable development differs across the EU. Particularly notable differences among EU countries could be observed for the variables denoting labour market and health, with demography being the least diversified of all areas. In Poland, the indicators regarding poverty and social exclusion improved significantly as a result of the implementation of numerous social programs. In addition to that, a positive change in education indicators was also reported in Poland. This favourable trend indicates that some of the goals set out in the Europe 2020 strategy have already been met by Poland while others are becoming increasingly attainable.
