Abstract: Abstract During the last few years, the economic landscape of Europe has changed dramatically, both in the East and in the West. In Eastern Europe, the peaceful revolutions — except Yugoslavia — are among the most dramatic events of the current epoch. A central element of the revolutions in most of these countries is a total reversal of economic policy and the transition from a centrally planned to a market-based economy. In Western Europe the process of economic integration within the EU has been and will be intensified with the implementation of the Economic and Monetary Union in 1993 and integrating the EFTA countries as most of them are likely to become EU-members in 1995. Certainly, both events will have far-reaching impacts on trade patterns and transport systems in Europe.
