| Summary: | In the article, the results of the research, which purpose is to ground and assess the factors of economic growth of regional integration
communities and national economies of member countries that develop them, are presented. The foreign trade, mutual trade turnover,
and domestic demand are allocated as such factors. The authors has applied the novelty in their methodology which in contrast to
the traditional assessment method of growth factors of integration communities and their participants, is based on comparison of
two components — external and domestic demand, based on dividing the external demand on two components: the first one is pure
export (the difference between export and import is a component of cumulative demand) of goods in integration community, i.e. the
pure export of mutual trade; the second one is a pure export of foreign trade of goods outside of the integration association. Scope of
the research is seven most known regional integrated units arose at different times and being at different stages of development — the
European Union, North American Free Trade Area, Association of Southeast Asian Nations, Southern American Common Market,
Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, and also member countries of the Eurasian integration — the Customs Union and Common Free
Market Zone developed into the Eurasian Economic Union in January 1, 2015. In conclusion, it is noted that the integration develops
successfully only in the conditions of the rise in national economies of the participating countries. Crisis economies have to deal more
with internal problems than to resolve integration issues. |
