Özet

The most dramatic development in Europe, which entered in a rapid process of restructuring after the Second World War, is foundations of the European Union to be laid. The Union, first including economic shares, rapidly expanded by including social and political fields over time. Going beyond economic partnership, the need of setting common standards on cultural issues such as health, education, living standards and environment in the Union turned up as a demonstration of a regional and global transformation. However it stands out that the member countries especially accessed the Union in the fifth enlargement period have different economic and cultural backgrounds from the existing members. From this point of view interaction of Union and new member countries in basis of economy and human development come up as a research topic. In the study, the effect of the interaction of the members accessed the Union in the fifth enlargement process on human development and its components of 1997-2007 period have been examined with panel data fixed effect model. The results of the study displayed that membership to European Union is positively effective on human development level of the countries. © EuroJournals Publishing, Inc. 2011.
