What is The Political Economy Of Reform In Post-communist Poland (economies And Societies In Transition Series) about?

Ten Years After The Collapse Of Communism In Poland, The Debate Continues Over The Impact Of The Transition To A Market Economy. Whilst Few Actually Say The Socialist System Could - Or Should - Have Been Preserved, The Path Of Change Has Been Far From Smooth, And Has Produced Both Winners And Losers In The Race To Reform. This Book Assesses The Prevailing Attitudes Of Both Support And Disenchantment Among Poles Towards The Transition, In The Light Of Their Own Experiences. In Particular Bell Uses Statistical Indicators On Economic Well-being, Regional Voting Results And Public Opinion Survey Data To Analyse The Socioeconomic Influences On Patterns Of Voting Behaviour, And Finds Unemployment To Be A Crucial Denominator. This Study Will Appeal To All Those Concerned With The Social Implications Of Reform Programmes In Former Communist Countries.--jacket.
