This title was first published in 2002. In State socialist
societies, informal economies were essential for the functioning of
the economy as well as for household provision. Since the beginning
of social transformation they have been flourishing better than
ever before. They are a main outlet on the market for the newly
emerging middle classes, stabilize the situation of many workers
and pensioners, and in countries on the downward slope they are
essential for the survival of large impoverished groups. Presenting
recent research on the social importance of informal economies,
especially in Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania and Russia, the editors
give a short introduction for each country, and a common
compilation of basic economic and social data follows in the
appendix. Household strategies in the 'shadow', groups of informal
winners and losers, informal employment in town and countryside,
outcomes from informal activities, the macro-economic importance of
informal economies, and researching methods are all investigated.
