This collection explores the dynamics of East-West cooperation in economic planning and its implications for both socialist and capitalist economies. Contributions include an analysis of the role of East-West cooperation in the economic planning of socialist countries and its interaction with competition in Western markets. Long-term planning aspects are examined, along with the influence of economic cycles on cooperation. The significance of East-West cooperation in state foreign trade planning is discussed, as well as its role as a tool for Western companies' strategies. Informational aspects of economic cooperation are highlighted, along with experiences and perspectives on industrial collaboration between European socialist and capitalist nations. The importance of socialist economic integration for East-West cooperation is analyzed, alongside the impact of the European Economic Community on these relations. The role of Western multinationals as partners in this cooperation is also assessed, emphasizing the necessity of pan-European economic cooperation for European security. Institutional aspects and the Euro-Dollar market as a financing source for cooperation are explored, concluding with a discussion on the challenges of financial cooperation between differing monetary systems and the effects of Western inflation on East-West collaboration.
