Tiivistelmä: | In the late 1990s, a variety of foreign-led economies emerged in Central and Eastern Europe (here as: CEE). State economic strategies in the Visegrad Four region (V4) of the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia have converged towards a distinct model of competition states. This article explores the politics of investment attraction and promotion (as: att-and-prm.) of particular investors within the states and regions in CEE, analysing coalitions of social actors, as "investment-promotion machines" forming in the process of bidding for investors and promoting them in the regions. This analysis draws primarily on case studies of att-and-prm. of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. |
