Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text analyzes the Europeanization of the Portuguese economy in the context of closer European integration, globalization and the struggle to achieve international competitiveness. Portugal, it argues, is an interesting case of the latecomer modernizer that latches on to Europe as the vehicle for its economic transformation. European integration facilitated Portugal's transformation from insularity and uncompetitiveness into a modernizing economy that is steadily, if unevenly, converging with its EU partners.

Download or read book Portugal Economic Development after its Entry into the European Union in 1986 written by Thilo Weber and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2003-12-19 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2002 in the subject Economics - Foreign Trade Theory, Trade Policy, grade: 1,1 (A), BVL Campus gGmbH (Transport Economics-Logistics), course: Business, language: English, abstract: [...] The revolution in 1974 was the beginning of dramatic political, economical and social changes in the country. In 1986, when Portugal became a member of the European Community (now European Union), the economy began to grow even faster than it had been the case in the years before. “Portugal ́s GDP per capita, which had been only 53 percent of the EU average in 1985, has now risen to more than 70% of the EU average by 1997.”1 As I was living in Portugal ́s capital Lisbon from 1984 until 1989, I personally experienced these great changes. I can remember that, e.g., chocolate was not known in Portugal until 1986. I also remember narrow roads which were in an extremely bad condition. Tramways and busses made me feel like in the 19th century. Furthermore, there were a lot of huts, particularly in the northern and in the eastern Lisbon periphery which I passed every morning on my way to school. These huts, in which mostly people from the former Portuguese colonies were living, disappeared between 1986 and 1990. Also the infrastructure was getting better and better. Many new roads and motorways were built, the tramway- and underground-system was modernised, big shopping- malls were built and you could suddenly buy almost everything (Haribo-Gummibärchen were sold in Portugal in 1986 for the first time and I guess I was the only one who bought them...) Beside these positive changes I also recognised, that people have changed their behaviour since the 1980 ́s. When I arrived to Portugal with my family in 1984 the Portuguese seemed to be friendlier than any people I had met before and time did not seem to be important to them at all. People were just living somehow, many of them were happy, some were not but nobody really complained about the fact that Portugal was the poorest country in the western part of the European continent. Of course, the Portuguese are still very friendly, but in my opinion the difference between the busy and hectic Central Europeans and the Portuguese has become smaller. It is also quiet obvious that today the Portuguese do everything they can to improve the economic situation and the standard of living. Portugal wants to catch up. It already has caught up enormously in the past 15 years and I am sure that this positive development will continue in the future. 1Department of State,UnitedStatesofAmerica, Portugal 2000: Country Commercial Guide, http://www.state.gov/www/about_state/business/com_guides/2000/europe/portugal00_02.html, 27/06/02

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2011, following years of large-scale external imbalances financed by debt, Portugal’s economy reached a crisis point. To restore economic growth and credibility with international lenders, the country embarked on a difficult path of fiscal adjustment and structural reforms. By many metrics, Portugal’s 2011–14 macroeconomic stabilization program has been a success, but going forward Portugal would benefit from policies to reduce vulnerabilities, absorb labor slack, and generate sustainable growth.
