This book describes and quantifies the major socioeconomic changes
that have occurred in four new member states of the EU (Slovenia,
Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria) since the early 1990s. The period
covered was a particularly turbulent one, not only because of the
transition process which was well underway but becase of the
stablization packages and other economic, monetary and social
policy measures, which have had a strong impact at individual and
household levels. While previous comparable studies have been
carried out, they cover the period only to the mid 1990s, thus this
book contains unique and very valuable statistical and micro data.
Within the broad framework of socioeconomic change, a number of
topics are explored in greater detail. These include changes in
activity, occupational status and educational attainment, household
income sources and income inequality, and risk of income poverty.
The analysis is based on household budget surveys and complemented
with other statistical sources, enabling a coherent analysis of the
impact of large changes in social policy at household level. The
country chapters are all based on common methodological guidelines
enabling comparisons to be drawn. This will be an invaluable book
for researchers in comparative social policy, poverty and social
stratification and economic sociology, and for specialists on
Central and Eastern Europe.
