Mastery and Lost Illusions : Space and Time in the Modernization of Eastern and Central Europe, Hardback Book

Mastery and Lost Illusions : Space and Time in the Modernization of Eastern and Central Europe Hardback

Edited by Wlodzimierz Borodziej, Stanislav Holubec, Joachim Puttkamer

Part of the Europas Osten im 20. Jahrhundert series

Hardback

Description

This volume highlights the specific experiences and challenges of modernity in twentieth-century Eastern and Central Europe.

Contributors ask how spatial and temporal conditions shaped the region’s transformation from a rural to an urban, industrialized society in this period and investigate the state’s role in the mastery of space, particularly in the context of state socialism.

The volume also sheds light on the ruralization of cities and mutual perceptions of the rural and urban populations in this region.
