Divergent Paths in Post-Communist Transformation: Capitalism for All or Capitalism for the Few?

Divergent Paths in Post-Communist Transformation: Capitalism for All or Capitalism for the Few?

Oleh Havrylyshyn
5/5 ( ratings)
The most comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the successes and failures of twenty-seven countries post-communism transformation. Looking at life after the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989, the book examines and contrasts why some countries have virtually completed their transformation to a liberal polity and economy, while others lag behind. Those that followed a strategy of early and steady reforms on economic, political, institutional and social dimensions have exhibited impressive results in economic performance, attracting foreign direct investment, dealing with the social costs of the transformation and establishing a liberal democracy. Unlike those that have moved gradually, with some countries in a frozen transition after being captured by powerful oligarch groups who have drained considerable state assets.
