The second part reveals the development of trade based on Outward Processing Traffic between the EU countries and Central-East European countries, which seems to be typically one of the non-equity alliance. Next, the third part discloses both MNc's role of the dismantling the national R＆D infrastructure and contributing toward the initiating of creating the innovative capacities in the reform-advanced countries in Central Europe, and point out it difficult to simple-heartedly generalize from the above two features. Some of inward FDI advanced countries faces the second stage of introducing FDI, which would seem to correspond to the new type of FDI among the advanced market countries. The last part concludes that the emerging and developing of the local clusters and industrial districts should be paid more attentions form viewpoint of contribution of FDI toward the developing of transition economies.
