Item type:Publication, Re-shaping the Model of Economic Growth of the CEE Countries(Tallinn Law School, School of Business and Governance, Tallinn University of Technology, 2016)The goal of this paper is to stress the importance of changing the present growth strategy of Central and Eastern European (CEE) economies. The economic model of resource and debt intensive growth they have enjoyed in the past two decades have proved to be ineffective and unsustainable. Given that the CEE growth model cannot be identified separately from the EU as a whole, we try to propose possible policy measures that would stimulate growth in the CEE in context of the policies at the EU level. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Chapter Seven: A Trade Facilitation Agreement Tool to Facilitate and Secure Trade(Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2018); ; The growing importance of trade facilitation is acknowledged with the signification of the new Agreement on Trade Facilitation at the WTO Ministerial Conference held in Bali in December 2013. The Trade Facilitation Agreement entered into force in February 2017 after two-thirds of the members completed their domestic ratification process. All countries agree that undertaking measures in this field can be beneficial for increasing their trade and the trade of their partners. The World Customs Organization has developed a methodology and software known as World Customs Organization Time Release Study (WCO TRS). WCO TRS is used to measure the time needed to release the goods and is a useful tool to identify weaknesses, risks and unsolved problems in cross border trade and international transport. Based on the negotiations that were conducted before the signing of the WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement, OECD undertook work to develop Trade Facilitation Indicators (TFIs) in order to measure their relative economic and trade impact on trade flows and trade costs in WTO member countries. In this chapter we are going to make an analysis and comparison of the results obtained from the methodology used by the World Customs Organization and the measures used by the OECD. The final goal of the chapter should be to sum up the results from both of the studies, find eventual similarities and offer recommendations that can be used by the official authorities either in Macedonia or within the region and wider to facilitate and secure trade. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Компаративна студија за мерење на времето за царинење и пропуштање на стоките(Универзитет „Св. Кирил и Методиј“ во Скопје, Економски факултет-Скопје, 2016); ; ;Toshevska-Trpchevska, Katerina ;Adjioski, DimcheSekulovska, MarijanaВо оваа студија е направена споредба на резултатите добиени со мерење според методологијата на СЦО и според мерењата на ОЕЦД.

Item type:Publication, “Determinants of the Bilateral Trade Flows of North Macedonia – A Gravity Model Approach”(2021); ; ; The paper makes an in detail overview of the structure of the trade exchange of goods of Macedonia and explores the determinants of its bilateral trade flows using the gravity model. The analysis includes data on 40 trade partners of Macedonia in the period from 2005-2019. The used variables in the model are: GDP per capita difference, population, distance and relative endowments of factors of production (capital, land and labour). In most of the analyzed regressions the coefficients on determinants such as GDP per capita difference and population are positive and their impact upon the bilateral trade (as dependent variable) is statistically significant. Intensity of Macedonian trade decreases in regard of the distance from a trade partner and increases in partner’s size – the country tends to trade more with lager countries. In our analysis we included three dummy variables such as: membership in the EU and in CEFTA-2006 and common language. The impact of the possible membership in the EU is clearly positive and statistically significant. Being a candidate country for full EU membership, Macedonia trades more with EU trade partners rather than with the neigbouring countries, members of CEFTA-2006. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The Importance of Intellectual Property Law in the Prevention of Selling Counterfeit Products Online(Emerald Publishing, 2022-09); ; ; Trade in counterfeit products has been expanding continuously. The emergence of the internet, the process of globalisation as well as the increase of digitalisation have enabled counterfeit products to infiltrate legitimate supply chains, causing harm not only to national economies but also to holders of intellectual property rights (IPR). In this chapter, we analyse the possible solutions that holders of IP rights and their legal representatives have in their fight against the online sale of counterfeit products. To elaborate on this issue, first, we explain the legislation on an international level for IPR protection and its specific characteristics. We explain the conventions on the protection of IPR that are governed by the World Intellectual Protection Organisation (WIPO) and the provisions of the TRIPS (Trade-Related Intellectual Property Rights) Agreement governed by the World Trade Organisation (WTO). We also analyse the national legislative procedure of protecting and enforcing IPR in North Macedonia to explain a possible solution to fight online counterfeit trade. As a case study of this chapter, we explain the work of the Online Enforcement Programme of REACT as a not-for-profit organisation with over 30 years of experience in the fight against counterfeit trade and the challenges that they have in fighting against the online sale of counterfeit products. Since IP law is territorial in its nature as a conclusion, we suggest that a more centralised approach is needed in the fight against the online sale of counterfeit products. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Ефекти од формирање на Внатрешниот пазар на ЕУ(Универзитет „Св. Кирил и Методиј“, Правен факултет „Јустинијан Први“, Скопје, 2016)Ефекти од формирањето на Внатрешниот (Единствениот) пазар, покажуваат дека доминатното место како моќна економска сила во светот, Унијата го има обезбедено преку процесот на регионално интегрирање и активно учество во тргувањето со стоки, услуги и капитал на меѓународниот пазар, како и преку мобилноста на лицата во рамките на Унијата. Внатрешниот пазар е столбот на ЕУ и стожер на нејзиниот раст. Унијата учествува со речиси 20% во вкупниот светски увоз и извоз на стоки. Со воведувањето на еврото, Унијата го има зголемено своето влијание и во меѓународниот монетарен систем. Меѓутоа, економската криза доведе до пресврт во развојот на настаните и придонесе за губење на позициите што Унијата претходно ги стекнала. Фокусот на овој труд е анализа на остварените ефекти и можностите за продлабочување на Внатрешниот пазар. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Evidence of innovation performance in the period of economic recovery in Europe(Taylor and Francis Group, 2018); ; ; Stojkoski, ViktorThis paper provides empirical evidence on the innovation performance in the European countries in the years of recovery from the global economic and financial crisis by using the CDM model of simultaneous equations. The model directly links R&D engagement and intensity to innovation outcomes measured either as process or as product innovation, and then estimates the effectiveness of the innovative efforts leading to productivity gains. The difference between the drivers of innovation systems and its influence over the productivity growth is analyzed between two different institutional settings in Europe. For that purpose a company-level dataset is used from the 2012 round of the Comunity Innovation Survey. Тhe results indicated that the recent financial crisis had negative influence on the companies’ willingness to innovate. The effect of the crisis led to further divergence in the innovation systems of these two institutional settings. Identifying the characteristics of the innovation systems and drivers of innovation during the turmoil shows that policy instruments on EU level should be oriented towards creation of competitive business environment, encouragement to adopt the best management techniques and organizational structures and improvement of well-functioning capital, product and labor markets. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Innovation performance of European SMEs: determined by regional or firm specific factors?(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2019-09); Different factors determine the innovation behaviour of Europe an SMEs firms. The goal of this paper is to assess the impact of firm specific and regional specific factors on the innovation behaviour of the firms in Europe. The analysis is based on data from the Regional Innovation Scoreboard for 2017, particularly focusing on the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The OLS regression shows that firm specific factors are of greater importance for the European firms in the observed regions. That suggests that regional environment is not an independent determinant of firms’ innovation activity. Innovation activity is shaped by the characteristics of the firms. The regional innovation policies should focus more on the specific needs of the firms and help them realise their existing and unexploited innovation potential. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Competitiveness of the European Union: Pre-crisis Trends and Impact of the Financial Crisis(Institute of Economic Sciences, Belgrade, Serbia, 2014); Nenovski TomeThis paper has the aim to point out the risks of reducing the EU competitiveness by analyzing the indicators of price and cost competitiveness, as well as the structural and technological aspects of competitiveness. The influence of the world crisis on the competitiveness and export performances of the EU is in the focus in order to show at what extent the global downturn may have aggravated previously existing needs for readjustment of the functioning of the Union. Not only that the crisis showed that the problems in the Union were not created recently, but also it demanded urgent needs of new improved policy in order to regain the competitiveness strength and performances. The reformulated strategy needs to be based on openness and innovation, with investment in research and development. Long-term expectations are to be made comprehensive structural changes in order to overcome structural differences between individual Member States and to increase the overall competitiveness. Additionally, trade barriers are needed between individual Member States to be removed and higher individual and aggregate rates of economic growth are to be achieved. It is clear that the effects of deep integration of the EU has not yet been achieved, and expected benefits may not be realized, if internal and external balance of the Union is not maintained. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, THE EFFECT OF INTRA-EU AND EXTRA-EU TRADE TO ECONOMIC GROWTH IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE(Ekonomski fakultet-Skopje, UKIM, 2019)This paper estimates the different impact on economic growth of intra trade within EU and extra trade outside the EU for five countries from Central and Eastern Europe (Poland, Hungary, Slovenia, Slovakia and the Czech Republic). These countries have gained several benefits from their EU membership since 2004 by exploiting their huge potential. A main characteristic of the regional integration, such as the EU is the reduction/ removal of the tariff and non-tariff barriers, in order to increase trade among countries that can lead to faster economic growth. By separating the extra-EU trade flows from intra-EU trade flows and using cross-section fixed method, panel least squares for the period 2003-2017, this paper shows that trade within EU has significantly higher effect on the growth per capita, than trade with countries outside the EU in the sample CEE countries.
