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 transition, in the light of
their own experiences. In particular Janice Bell uses statistical
indicators on economic well-being, regional voting results and
public opinion survey data to analyse the socio-economic influences
on patterns of voting behaviour, and finds unemployment to be a
crucial denominator. Groundbreaking in its perspective, this study
will appeal to all those concerned with the social implications of
reform programmes in former communist countries.
