This paper discusses key issues pertaining to the economy of Lithuania. Good policies and favorable business conditions have helped put Lithuania back on the convergence path with western European living standards. Last year, growth took a temporary hit from difficult external environment. External factors caused the price level to fall in 2015, but deflation is unlikely to take root. The external current account moved into moderate deficit in 2015 due to weak export markets and strong domestic demand. Lithuania needs to focus on raising productivity growth through structural reforms, securing continued competitiveness as labor market tightens, and reducing income inequality through fiscal measures while maintaining a prudent policy stance.

Lithuania regained its independence from the Soviet Union in 1990. The current constitution1 was approved by referendum in 1992. On 1 May 2004 Lithuania joined the EU, meaning that significant changes to the legal system had taken place in little over a decade to meet EU and international standards. It should be mentioned that in most cases the legal changes were not widely discussed, and society was not sufficiently prepared for some of the new non-discrimination standards. The equality debate is relatively new to the country and it is therefore not surprising that a significant part of the population lacks understanding. According to the general census carried out in 2011, Lithuanians account for 84.2 % of the population, with the biggest minority groups being Poles and Russians (Poles make up 6.6 % of the population and Russians account for 5.8 %, although there are certain regions where ethnic minorities form the majority of population). The same could be applied to religion and beliefs: 77.2 % of the population consider themselves to be Roman Catholics; 10.1 % did not indicate their religion; 4.1 % are Orthodox; and 8.6 % belong to other religious communities. Hence Lithuania could be considered a rather homogenous country. That is supported by the results of the 2015 Eurobarometer survey on discrimination: only 29 % of Lithuanian residents think that discrimination on the basis of ethnicity is widespread in the country (the EU average is 64 %) and just 17 % think that religious discrimination is widespread (the average in the EU is 50 %). The lack of comprehensive equality data remains a barrier to assessing the real situation faced by particular vulnerable groups. A comprehensive equality data collection system has not yet been established. The data currently available mostly derive from various studies, public opinion surveys and data collected by administrative bodies, all of which is done on an ad hoc basis. The number of complaints received by the Equal Opportunities Ombudsperson adds to the picture (at least some of its decisions, especially those from 2014 and 2015, are available to the public online). Although general awareness of human rights is slightly increasing, awareness of institutions working in the field of human rights protection as well as public trust in existing mechanisms remain unsatisfactory. A survey conducted in 2014 indicated that although 53 % of the population claim to know to whom to address a complaint of human rights violation, 95 % of those who claimed that their rights had been recently violated (that is 18 % of all respondents), did not make a complaint anywhere.

War Revolution And Nation Making In Lithuania 1914 1923 written by Tomas Balkelis and has been published by Oxford University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2018 with History categories.
In this book, Tomas Balkelis explores how the Lithuanian state was created and shaped by the Great War from its onset in 1914 to the last waves of violence in 1923. As the very notion of independent Lithuania was constructed during the war, violence is seen as an essential part of the formation of Lithuanian state, nation, and identity. War was much more than simply the historical context in which the tectonic shift from empire to nation-state took place. It transformed people, policies, institutions, and modes of thought in ways that would continue to shape the nation for decades after the conflict subsided. In telling the story of the post-WWI conflict in Lithuania, War, Revolution, and Nation-Making in Lithuania, 1914-1923 focuses on the soldiers and civilians involved in the conflict, rather than the strategies and acts of politicians, generals, or diplomats. The volume's two main themes are the impact of military, social, and cultural mobilizations on the local population, and different types of violence that were so characteristic of the region throughout the period. The actors in this story are people displaced by war and mobilized for war: refugees, veterans, volunteers, peasant conscripts, POWs, paramilitary fighters, and others who took to guns, not diplomacy, to assert their power. This is the story of how their lives were changed by war and how they shaped the society that emerged after war.
