Vienna Institute for Comparative Economic Studies (WIIW)
This institute focuses on central and eastern Europe. "The
Institute's special expertise -- detailed personal knowledge of the
countries of the former eastern bloc -- helps assess economic
trends, search for new business opportunities and reduce uncertainty
in entering markets." On the Internet, they offer information about
themselves and their projects. Perhaps the most useful is their
extensive database of economic information for this part of the
world. However, currently, it is accessible only to members of the
Institute. They also offer abstracts of their publications, and an
on-line catalog of their library.
