Addendum In the period since the presentation of this paper, there have been major changes in the political struture of Europe. While it is beyond our scope to analyze the potential effects of these changes on the markets for MEI technologies, we can outline a few points here. Th apparent success of Soviet glasnost, the razing of the Berlin wall, and the "demoratzaton" of Eatern European countries have resulted in a diferent economic environmnt than tha which existed only months before. Thre is nes of the possibilty of reduced defense spending, the relaxation of export controls, and improved link between EC and EFTA countries in a new "European Economic Space." But whether these changes will result in opportnitiesfor U.S. firm in MEI technologies is extremely uncertain. Given the severe environmntal problems faced by many Eatern European countries, we expect tha there is substantial needfor increased environmntal monitoring and oceanographic research technologies, for example. However, existing governntal andfinancial institutons, lack of technological capabilties (especially computers), and lower standards of living wil ma it dijcult, ifnot impossible, for such needs to be backed by hard currenc and revealed in expandd markets. It is clear tha firm in some Western European countries, especially West Germny (and possibly also Finland to a lesser extent), may alread have head starts and locational advantages in the establishmnt of trading and joint venture relatonships with Eatern European countries. Th opening of the Eatern European markets will be yet another important factor for future consideration of the competitive position of u.s. firm in the MEI field. 29
