Real Economy goes to Croatia, just 10 months after it joined the European Union, to see if enlargement is more than simply a one size fits all prosperity dream.
The Governor of the Croatian National Bank talks about facing into tough economic headwinds. We also ask if EU membership is morphing economic mindsets, and look at evolving relationships in the region, from a Serbian point of view.
*The EU story so far*
In 1957, Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands and what was then West ...

On the 1st of July 2013 Croatia will join the European Union - making it the 28th member state. But is the EU allowing a future Greece into the partnership? More than half of young people in Croatia are unemployed. The economy is shrinking and the country is still struggling with the effects of the financial crisis. Reforms will be sorely needed.

Nor would I see lots and lots of foreigners arriving in Croatia. Croatia has many of the characteristics of an open economy, but it's quite a closed society frankly."
19. Various street scenes
STORYLINE:
As Croatia prepares to join the European Union, residents of the capital Zagreb said on Saturday that they were uncertain about what benefits membership will bring.
The Balkan state is joining the bloc after a decade of negotiations and at a time of the EU's biggest financial crisis.
While a stage has been set up for celebrations in Zagreb's main square, the local market was almost empty on Saturday.
Increasing food costs and high taxes have hit consumers hard.
Prices are almost the same as in Paris, Berlin or Rome, but an average Croatian income is nowhere near what people take home in those other countries.
Croatia's economy needs a huge injection of funds to kick start its ailing industries, including agriculture, shipping and construction.
Some Zagreb residents doubt whether EU membership will turn things around.
"People think that there (the European Union) is great and super, and that the grass is greener over there, but in fact, I think that the grass there is equally yellow, as it is here," said Mane Valovic.
Resident Natasa Malovic added: "Personally I am looking forward to (joining the) EU, because they told us the prices of food will fall. But in general, I have a split opinion about our accession to the European Union."
Some analysts also fear that the economic consequences of joining the EU will be far from positive.
Croatia's membership has also prompted concerns over migration in Europe, but Stubbs said they are likely to prove unfounded.

22. Wide of European Commission building
STORYLINE:
Croatia's upcoming historic entry into the European Union is not the first thing on Kata Secic's mind.
The 53-year-old Croatian textile factory worker has a more immediate worry - she hasn't received her 300-euro-a-month (400 US dollar) wage for months because her shirt and underwear producer has gone bust.
A decade ago, when Croatia started negotiating EU entry, the country was overjoyed at the prospect of becoming a member of the European elite.
Now, with the EU in deep financial turmoil and Croatia's own economy in recession for five consecutive years, that excitement has all but vanished as the Balkan country officially becomes a member on 1 July.
Secic has been marching on the streets of the Croatian capital, Zagreb, every day for a month alongside dozens of her co-workers.
"Our children might have better opportunities in terms of finding jobs. Things may move," she concedes.

WORLD TRAVEL (EUROPE, ASIA, AFRICA, AMERICAS...)
A fascinating land with a hard-fought history in a complex corner of Europe, Croatia is emerging as one of Europe's top destinations. Sampling the very best of Croatia, we start by exploring the fabled Dalmatian Coast from dramatic Dubrovnik to crusty Adriatic island ports. Heading inland, we hike through Plitvice Lakes National Park and enjoy the thriving capital city Zagreb. Our Croatian finale: the Istrian Peninsula and its enchanting port town of Rovinj.
Croatia (Listeni/kroʊˈeɪʃə/; Croatian: Hrvatska, pronounced [xř̩ʋaːtskaː]), officially the Republic of Croatia (Croatian: Republika Hrvatska About this sound listen (help·info)) is a sovereign state at the crossroads of Central Europe, Southeast Europe, and the Mediterranean. Its capital city is Zagreb, which forms one of the country's primary subdivisions, along with the twenty counties. Croatia covers 56,594 square kilometres (21,851 square miles) and has diverse, mostly continental and Mediterranean climates. Croatia's Adriatic Sea coast contains more than a thousand islands. The country's population is 4.28 million, most of whom are Croats, with the most common religious denomination being Roman Catholicism.
The Croats arrived in the area of present-day Croatia during the early part of the 7th century AD. They organised the state into two duchies by the 9th century. Tomislav became the first king by 925, elevating Croatia to the status of a kingdom. The Kingdom of Croatia retained its sovereignty for nearly two centuries, reaching its peak during the rule of Kings Peter Krešimir IV and Dmitar Zvonimir. Croatia entered a personal union with Hungary in 1102. In 1527, faced with Ottoman conquest, the Croatian Parliament elected Ferdinand I of the House of Habsburg to the Croatian throne. In 1918, after World War I, Croatia was included in the unrecognised State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs which seceded from Austria-Hungary and merged into the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. A fascist Croatian puppet state existed during World War II. After the war, Croatia became a founding member and a federal constituent of Second Yugoslavia, a constitutionally socialist state. In June 1991, Croatia declared independence, which came into effect on 8 October of the same year. The Croatian War of Independence was fought successfully during the four years following the declaration.
A unitary state, Croatia is a republic governed under a parliamentary system. The International Monetary Fund classified Croatia as an emerging and developing economy, and the World Bank identified it as a high-income economy. Croatia is a member of the European Union (EU), United Nations (UN), the Council of Europe, NATO, the World Trade Organization (WTO) and a founding member of the Union for the Mediterranean. As an active participant in the UN peacekeeping forces, Croatia has contributed troops to the NATO-led mission in Afghanistan and took a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council for the 2008–2009 term.
The service sector dominates Croatia's economy, followed by the industrial sector and agriculture. Tourism is a significant source of revenue during the summer, with Croatia ranked the 18th most popular tourist destination in the world. The state controls a part of the economy, with substantial government expenditure. The European Union is Croatia's most important trading partner. Since 2000, the Croatian government has invested in infrastructure, especially transport routes and facilities along the Pan-European corridors. Internal sources produce a significant portion of energy in Croatia; the rest is imported. Croatia provides a universal health care system and free primary and secondary education, while supporting culture through numerous public institutions and through corporate investments in media and publishing.
Thank You!
God Bless

Croatia will become the 28th member state of the EU at the end of June, but its economy is expected to go into recession this year and unemployment is climbing.
This week the country's biggest ship yard is letting a third of its workforce go in an effort to become more competitive. Could joining the EU give Croatian firms a much-needed boost?

Voters are go to the polls in Croatia on Sunday to choose their next president.
Incumbent Ivo Josipovic, who is supported by the ruling Social Democrats, is seen as the frontrunner. That is despite his government's failure to stop a severe economic crisis.
But an election run-off round is likely, with Josipovic probably going up against former foreign minister Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic. She is from the conservative Christian Democratic Union, the biggest opposition party.

Economy of Croatia is a service-based economy with the tertiary sector accounting for 70% of total gross domestic product (GDP). Croatian GDP in 2010 was 335.5 billion Croatian Kuna and contracted by 1.4% year-on-year. Although Croatian economy had showed signs of recovery in the last quarter of 2010 and officially exited recession in the first quarter of 2011, economic indicators suggest that the recovery may be sluggish with the economy expected to grow by 1.5-1.8% in 2011.
In spite of the rather slow post-recession recovery, in terms of income per capita Croatia is still ahead of some European Union member states such as Bulgaria, Romania, Latvia and Lithuania. Estimated GDP per capita in purchasing power parity (PPP) in 2010 was around USD 19,754 or 63.3% of the EU average for the same year.
The industrial sector with exports of over €1 billion annually is dominated by shipbuilding which accounts for over 10% of exported goods. Food processing and chemical industry also account for significant portions of industrial output and exports. Industrial sector represents 27% of Croatia’s total economic output while agriculture represents 6%. Industrial sector is responsible for 25% of Croatia's GDP, with agriculture, forestry and fishing accounting for the remaining 5% of Croatian GDP.

The country's population is 4.28 million, most of whom are Croats, with the most common religious denomination being Roman Catholicism.

The Kingdom of Croatia retained its sovereignty for nearly two centuries, reaching its peak during the rule of Kings Peter Krešimir IV and Dmitar Zvonimir.

Croatia: the EU's youngest member takes stock of progress - real economy
Real Economy goes to Croatia, just 10 months after it joined the European Union, to see if enlargement is more than simply a one size fits all prosperity dream. The Governor of the Croatian National Bank talks about facing into tough economic headwinds. We also ask if EU membership is morphing economic mindsets, and look at evolving relationships in the region, from a Serbian point of view. *The EU story so far* In 1957, Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands and what was then West ...

Croatia - A Future Greece? | Made in Germany
On the 1st of July 2013 Croatia will join the European Union - making it the 28th member state. But is the EU allowing a future Greece into the partnership? More than half of young people in Croatia are unemployed. The economy is shrinking and the country is still struggling with the effects of the financial crisis. Reforms will be sorely needed.

Mid of Doctor Paul Stubbs, senior research fellow, walking out of Institute of Economics building 16. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr Paul Stubbs, Senior Research Fellow, Zagreb Institute of Economics: "But I would like to see, and I think that benefit would only be if the union does not continue with this crazy, German-led, IMF-led, set of economic policies, which means there's a strong core and a very weak periphery in Europe. Croatia is probably between the core and the periphery, but it is more likely to suffer like the periphery does, in terms of the kind of social, employment kind of issues I think, unless the European Union changes." 17. Close-up of Institute of Economics sign above entrance 18. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr Paul Stubbs, Senior Research Fellow, Zagreb Institute of Economics: "The other issue is this issue of migration, that everyone is talking about. I would not see huge numbers of Croatians moving abroad, even if they could and many countries will limit that. Nor would I see lots and lots of foreigners arriving in Croatia. Croatia has many of the characteristics of an open economy, but it's quite a closed society frankly." 19. Various street scenes STORYLINE: As Croatia prepares to join the European Union, residents of the capital Zagreb said on Saturday that they were uncertain about what benefits membership will bring. The Balkan state is joining the bloc after a decade of negotiations and at a time of the EU's biggest financial crisis. While a stage has been set up for celebrations in Zagreb's main square, the local market was almost empty on Saturday. Increasing food costs and high taxes have hit consumers hard. Prices are almost the same as in Paris, Berlin or Rome, but an average Croatian income is nowhere near what people take home in those other countries. Croatia's economy needs a huge injection of funds to kick start its ailing industries, including agriculture, shipping and construction. Some Zagreb residents doubt whether EU membership will turn things around. "People think that there (the European Union) is great and super, and that the grass is greener over there, but in fact, I think that the grass there is equally yellow, as it is here," said Mane Valovic. Resident Natasa Malovic added: "Personally I am looking forward to (joining the) EU, because they told us the prices of food will fall. But in general, I have a split opinion about our accession to the European Union." Some analysts also fear that the economic consequences of joining the EU will be far from positive. Croatia's membership has also prompted concerns over migration in Europe, but Stubbs said they are likely to prove unfounded.

Those who use bottom trawlers will have to go further from the shore - three or maybe six miles. And for those of us who use small nets or traps, it will be better." 19. Mid of fisherman Davor Skoric rowing his boat Brussels, Belgium - 14 June 2013 20. Various of Peter Stano, European Commission spokesperson for Enlargement and Neighbourhood Policy 21. SOUNDBITE (English) Peter Stano, European Commission spokesperson for Enlargement and Neighbourhood Policy: "The work on strengthening the rule of law, the work on fighting the corruption and strengthening the independence of judiciary is ongoing work. It is not work that will end on 30 June. This is work which will continue because, as you know, this is a task and topic and challenge also for the member states to fight corruption. And Croatia knows what it has to do and they are doing what is expected from them, and we hope that we will see the results soon." 22. Wide of European Commission building STORYLINE: Croatia's upcoming historic entry into the European Union is not the first thing on Kata Secic's mind. The 53-year-old Croatian textile factory worker has a more immediate worry - she hasn't received her 300-euro-a-month (400 US dollar) wage for months because her shirt and underwear producer has gone bust. A decade ago, when Croatia started negotiating EU entry, the country was overjoyed at the prospect of becoming a member of the European elite. Now, with the EU in deep financial turmoil and Croatia's own economy in recession for five consecutive years, that excitement has all but vanished as the Balkan country officially becomes a member on 1 July. Secic has been marching on the streets of the Croatian capital, Zagreb, every day for a month alongside dozens of her co-workers. "Our children might have better opportunities in terms of finding jobs. Things may move," she concedes.

Croatia: Economic crisis key issue in presidential vote
Croatians go to the polls on Sunday to vote for their next president, an important role which permits a say in foreign policy and intelligence but that does not permit veto powers. The head of state is also the head of the armed forces. The current leader of the EU's newest member is Ivo Josipovic. He is supported by the ruling Social Democrats and is seen as the frontrunner. Josipovic's main rival is Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic from the conservative Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ).

Emil Vargovic: Economic development in a global economy (CEU Alumni Talks Croatia '14)
The challenge of reducing global poverty and promoting development in the world is and will remain one of the most important global tasks in the foreseeable future. Though there is no clear consensus on how to achieve these goals, the UN Millennium Project and the associated Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) seem to be the step in the right direction, and their over-arching vision has brought the international community closer together. In my talk, first I have addressed the issues of growth vs development, and the most important sources of (and obstacles to) development. The following step was the analysis of the main strengths and weaknesses of MDG framework, and the overall success rate of the Millennium Project. In the conclusion, certain suggestions for the post-2015 global development framework were offered. Emil Vargovic (MA in Pol. Sci '12) -
Yanis Varoufakis: The Global Minotaur: America, Europe and the Future of the Global Economy
6th Subversive festival 15/05/2013, 18h, cinema Europa, Hall Müller, Zagreb, Croatia Yanis Varoufakis: The Global Minotaur: America, Europe and the Future of the Global Economy (book promotion) Q&A;: Marko Kostanić Yanis Varoufakis: "The Global Minotaur: America, Europe and the Future of the Global Economy" (Zed Books, London, 2013) In this remarkable and provocative book, Yanis Varoufakis explodes the myth that financialisation, ineffectual regulation of banks, greed and globalisation were the root causes of the global economic crisis. Rather, they are symptoms of a much deeper malaise which can be traced all the way back to the Great Crash of 1929, then on through the 1970s: the time when a 'Global Minotaur' was born. Just as the Athenians maintained a steady flow of tributes to the Cretan beast, so the 'rest of the world' began sending incredible amounts of capital to America and Wall Street. Thus, the Global Minotaur became the 'engine' that pulled the world economy from the early 1980s to 2008. Yanis Varoufakis Political economist and a professor at the University of Texas, Austin. After training in mathematics and statistics, Varoufakis received his economics doctorate in 1987 at the University of Essex. Before that he has allready began teaching economics and econometrics at the University of Essex and the University of East Anglia. From 1989 until 2000 he taught as Senior Lecturer in Economics at the Department of Economics of the University of Sydney. In 2000 he moved to his native Greece where he was Professor of Economic Theory at the University of Athens. He is an active participant in the current debates on the global and European crisis and the author of The Global Minotaur: America, the True Origins of the Financial Crisis and the Future of the World Economy (2011). You can find other recordings of talks by Varoufakis from the 2013 Zagreb visit here: keynote "Confessions of an Erratic Marxist": http://youtu.be/A3uNIgDmqwI interview "All the good stuff that cannot be measured": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqZ2evtU0Yg roundtable "Utopia of the EU" with Susan George and Franco Beradi Bifo: http://youtu.be/ZAYK9cMiSbE -

On the 1st of July 2013 Croatia will join the European Union - making it the 28th member state. But is the EU allowing a future Greece into the partnership? More than half of young people in Croatia are unemployed. The economy is shrinking and the country is still struggling with the effects of the financial crisis. Reforms will be sorely needed.

STORYLINE:
As Croatia prepares to join the European Union, residents of the capital Zagreb said on Saturday that they were uncertain about what benefits membership will bring.
The Balkan state is joining the bloc after a decade of negotiations and at a time of the EU's biggest financial crisis.
While a stage has been set up for celebrations in Zagreb's main square, the local market was almost empty on Saturday.
Increasing food costs and high taxes have hit consumers hard.
Prices are almost the same as in Paris, Berlin or Rome, but an average Croatian income is nowhere near what people take home in those other countries.
Croatia's economy needs a huge injection of funds to kick start its ailing industries, including agriculture, shipping and construction.
Some Zagreb residents doubt whether EU membership will turn things around.
"People think that there (the European Union) is great and super, and that the grass is greener over there, but in fact, I think that the grass there is equally yellow, as it is here," said Mane Valovic.
Resident Natasa Malovic added: "Personally I am looking forward to (joining the) EU, because they told us the prices of food will fall. But in general, I have a split opinion about our accession to the European Union."
Some analysts also fear that the economic consequences of joining the EU will be far from positive.
Croatia's membership has also prompted concerns over migration in Europe, but Stubbs said they are likely to prove unfounded.

Now, with the EU in deep financial turmoil and Croatia's own economy in recession for five consecutive years, that excitement has all but vanished as the Balkan country officially becomes a member on 1 July.
Secic has been marching on the streets of the Croatian capital, Zagreb, every day for a month alongside dozens of her co-workers.
"Our children might have better opportunities in terms of finding jobs. Things may move," she concedes.

WORLD TRAVEL (EUROPE, ASIA, AFRICA, AMERICAS...)
A fascinating land with a hard-fought history in a complex corner of Europe, Croatia is emerging as one of Europe's top destinations. Sampling the very best of Croatia, we start by exploring the fabled Dalmatian Coast from dramatic Dubrovnik to crusty Adriatic island ports. Heading inland, we hike through Plitvice Lakes National Park and enjoy the thriving capital city Zagreb. Our Croatian finale: the Istrian Peninsula and its enchanting port town of Rovinj.
Croatia (Listeni/kroʊˈeɪʃə/; Croatian: Hrvatska, pronounced [xř̩ʋaːtskaː]), officially the Republic of Croatia (Croatian: Republika Hrvatska About this sound listen (help·info)) is a sovereign state at the crossroads of Central Europe, Southeast Europe, and the Mediterranean. Its capital city is Zagreb, which forms one of the country's primary subdivisions, along with the twenty counties. Croatia covers 56,594 square kilometres (21,851 square miles) and has diverse, mostly continental and Mediterranean climates. Croatia's Adriatic Sea coast contains more than a thousand islands. The country's population is 4.28 million, most of whom are Croats, with the most common religious denomination being Roman Catholicism.
The Croats arrived in the area of present-day Croatia during the early part of the 7th century AD. They organised the state into two duchies by the 9th century. Tomislav became the first king by 925, elevating Croatia to the status of a kingdom. The Kingdom of Croatia retained its sovereignty for nearly two centuries, reaching its peak during the rule of Kings Peter Krešimir IV and Dmitar Zvonimir. Croatia entered a personal union with Hungary in 1102. In 1527, faced with Ottoman conquest, the Croatian Parliament elected Ferdinand I of the House of Habsburg to the Croatian throne. In 1918, after World War I, Croatia was included in the unrecognised State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs which seceded from Austria-Hungary and merged into the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. A fascist Croatian puppet state existed during World War II. After the war, Croatia became a founding member and a federal constituent of Second Yugoslavia, a constitutionally socialist state. In June 1991, Croatia declared independence, which came into effect on 8 October of the same year. The Croatian War of Independence was fought successfully during the four years following the declaration.
A unitary state, Croatia is a republic governed under a parliamentary system. The International Monetary Fund classified Croatia as an emerging and developing economy, and the World Bank identified it as a high-income economy. Croatia is a member of the European Union (EU), United Nations (UN), the Council of Europe, NATO, the World Trade Organization (WTO) and a founding member of the Union for the Mediterranean. As an active participant in the UN peacekeeping forces, Croatia has contributed troops to the NATO-led mission in Afghanistan and took a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council for the 2008–2009 term.
The service sector dominates Croatia's economy, followed by the industrial sector and agriculture. Tourism is a significant source of revenue during the summer, with Croatia ranked the 18th most popular tourist destination in the world. The state controls a part of the economy, with substantial government expenditure. The European Union is Croatia's most important trading partner. Since 2000, the Croatian government has invested in infrastructure, especially transport routes and facilities along the Pan-European corridors. Internal sources produce a significant portion of energy in Croatia; the rest is imported. Croatia provides a universal health care system and free primary and secondary education, while supporting culture through numerous public institutions and through corporate investments in media and publishing.

WORLD TRAVEL (EUROPE, ASIA, AFRICA, AMERICAS...)
A fascinating land with a hard-fought history in a complex corner of Europe, Croatia is emerging as one of Europe's top destinations.

Incumbent Ivo Josipovic, who is supported by the ruling Social Democrats, is seen as the frontrunner. That is despite his government's failure to stop a severe economic crisis.

The challenge of reducing global poverty and promoting development in the world is and will remain one of the most important global tasks in the foreseeable future. Though there is no clear consensus on how to achieve these goals, the UN Millennium Project and the associated Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) seem to be the step in the right direction, and their over-arching vision has brought the international community closer together. In my talk, first I have addressed the issues of growth vs development, and the most important sources of (and obstacles to) development. The following step was the analysis of the main strengths and weaknesses of MDG framework, and the overall success rate of the Millennium Project. In the conclusion, certain suggestions for the post-2015 global development framework were offered.

Yanis Varoufakis: The Global Minotaur: America, Europe and the Future of the Global Economy (book promotion)
Q&A;: Marko Kostanić
Yanis Varoufakis: "The Global Minotaur: America, Europe and the Future of the Global Economy" (Zed Books, London, 2013)
In this remarkable and provocative book, Yanis Varoufakis explodes the myth that financialisation, ineffectual regulation of banks, greed and globalisation were the root causes of the global economic crisis. Rather, they are symptoms of a much deeper malaise which can be traced all the way back to the Great Crash of 1929, then on through the 1970s: the time when a 'Global Minotaur' was born. Just as the Athenians maintained a steady flow of tributes to the Cretan beast, so the 'rest of the world' began sending incredible amounts of capital to America and Wall Street. Thus, the Global Minotaur became the 'engine' that pulled the world economy from the early 1980s to 2008.
Yanis Varoufakis
Political economist and a professor at the University of Texas, Austin. After training in mathematics and statistics, Varoufakis received his economics doctorate in 1987 at the University of Essex. Before that he has allready began teaching economics and econometrics at the University of Essex and the University of East Anglia. From 1989 until 2000 he taught as Senior Lecturer in Economics at the Department of Economics of the University of Sydney. In 2000 he moved to his native Greece where he was Professor of Economic Theory at the University of Athens. He is an active participant in the current debates on the global and European crisis and the author of The Global Minotaur: America, the True Origins of the Financial Crisis and the Future of the World Economy (2011).
