This presentation discusses a new statistical method “Time Distance Analysis,” which has been developed by Professor Pavle Sicherl (University of Ljubljana, Slovenia) and shows how it can be used to compare the transition, recovery and development of Ukraine relative to a group of European countries, both current and prospective members of the European Union. The presentation may be of interest to researchers, policy analysts and decision-makers as well as those who are interested in the process of European integration.
