Book abstract: This work endeavours to explain the political transformations that have swept Central and Eastern Europe during the 1990s, acknowledged to be the 'third wave of democratisation' which had its beginnings in 1974 in Spain and Portugal. The tide that flowed through Eastern Europe was different in so far as it carried with it a wholesale change in economic planning, away from the planned command economy of communist societies towards a free market economy. |
