Bedrichová, Táňa ; Potužák, Pavel (advisor) ; Čermáková, Klára (referee)
The term middle-income trap refers to the phenomenon when country get stuck at certain level of income per capita, and surpassing to higher level seems difficult or is even impossible. Economy does not have advantage of poor economies - lower wages, neither the advantages of rich economies -- best technologies. The theme of the middle-income trap attracted lot of attention in recent years, especially after publishing the paper of Eichengreen, Shin, and Park When Fast Growing Economies Slow Down (2011). Eichengreen et al. conclude that there is more than only depletion of total factor productivity behind the middle-income trap. Human capital, production of high-technology intensive goods and share of Hi-Tech goods in the export play its role. This thesis, using regression model and data analysis, discuss the case of Poland and concludes that Poland is still an efficiency-driven economy and therefore the danger of falling into middle-income trap is still present. Main weakness of the economy is lack of human capital and innovation. JEL klasifikace: E01, E02, E19, F63
