The Experience of Democratization in Eastern Europe
Drawing on a selection of papers presented to the Fifth World Congress of Central and East European Studies held in Warsaw in August 1995, the book presents a broad cross-section of thinking about postcommunist developments in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. Specialists from the region and the West apply their unique insights to challenge some conventional views on the transition. The book is both diverse and focused, suggesting that the experience of democratisation is an open-ended process in which those involved learn both from their own experience and from comparative transitions elsewhere. It provides a rich source for the comparative analysis of democratisation.
Historical Reflections on Central Europe
The transformation of Central and Eastern Europe from Communist rule has opened the countries concerned to renewed assessment of their historical identity. These essays record and contribute to that reassessment, reminding us of the diversity of experience, largely ignored after the Second World War. Written by an international team of authors, some living and working in the countries concerned, others perceptive and sympathetic scholars from abroad, the articles range broadly over time and space to contribute to our understanding of Central and Eastern Europe's past and present and to help prepare for its future.
