Beskrivning

Drawing on contributions from various disciplines, this collection analyzes Romania's experiences of the transition from the harsh realities of the Ceausescu dictatorship to the uncertainties of the efforts to consolidate democracy and introduce a market economy. With its focus on Romania's progress in coming to terms with the legacy of its communist past, the realities of pluralism, the introduction of a market economy and the challenge of European integration, the volume should be useful to academics, students and practitioners interested in transition and Romania.
