Struggling with the Communist Legacy - Hardcover
The collapse of communism in eastern Europe set off an inevitable chain of political transitions. The abruptness of this change resulted in several stable communist societies' rapid deterioration into chaos and crisis. Ten established scholars of political science, international relations, history, civilization, and the economics of eastern Europe contribute toward understanding this radical shift. Their analyses are divided into three parts. Part one examines Yugoslavia and the underlying forces that led to its disintegration. Part two presents a broader view of the Balkan countries immediately after the collapse of communism. Part three focuses on various aspects of post-communist Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary. This cross-disciplinary volume is essential documentation of a crucial historical period.
