Abstract: The adjustment processes in the context of EU enlargement are analysed and it is shown that institutional changes and economic adjustment dynamics differ across countries. EU eastern enlargement has generated some convergence effects. After a transition period there was considerable westward migration. Changes and sectoral output composition of Eastern Europe is partially related to the value-added chains of western EU companies. Until 2015 membership in the Eurozone has been completed by smaller accession countries only. Poland as the biggest economy of Eastern Europe still has no plans for a membership soon. EU eastern enlargement lags a consistent complementary EU neighbourhood policy. At the bottom line EU-eastern enlargement reinforces necessary EU reforms.
