During the communist period in Eastern Europe, even women with small children typically worked outside the home, and their participation in formal political institutions was virtually mandatory. In the 1990s, with the introduction of market reforms, women have been disproportionately affected by employment downsizing and the dramatic erosion of social services. Nor have they fared well in electoral politics; and woman have been especially vulnerable wherever political competition has given way to violence.

Beyond these generalizations, however, there is in the new political life of women in Eastern Europe a varied richness of experience that is ably reported and analyzed in this newly updated and expanded collection, which in its first edition was welcomed as "the vanguard of post-communist women's studies". The sixteen chapters provide comprehensive coverage of the region -- from Albania to Poland, from Germany to Russia, witch separate pieces on Croatia, Serbia, and Slovenia.
