In this timely interdisciplinary volume, a renowned group of
scholars provides a fresh look at transformation in Eastern Europe
and the former Soviet Union, They argue that this lengthy and
largely uncontrollable process will follow a different path from
that blazed by Western democracies. The contributors perceive this
process as a painful one, marked by trials and reversals. The most
striking and current example of this uneven process considered is
the attempted August coup and the subsequent fragmentation of the
Soviet Union. Attributing the collapse of state socialism to
ideological erosion combined with economic deterioration, the
contributors contend that all major segments in these
societies—including the party itself—participated in bringing
the system down.
