Summary/Abstract: Creating favored zones has a long history dating back to ancient times. The first special economic zone in the current meaning was established in Shannon in Ireland in 1958. Nowadays it is estimated that there are over 3000 special economic zones in more than 130 countries worldwide. These types of instruments also became quite popular in the post-socialist countries in the early 90s. One of the largest post-comunist countries which created free trade zones was Romania. The aim of the article is to analyze how free trade zones work in Romania under the current Romanian law.
