Prospects for Change in Socialist Systems : Challenges and Responses Hardback
by Charles Bukowski, Mark A. Cichock
Hardback
Description
This book brings together experts in international relations and comparative politics in order to examine the sociopolitical and economic issues of individual socialist countries and to investigate specific issues cross-nationally.
In addition to summarizing recent events that have affected the politics of the socialist community, the contributors speculate about possible future developments.
Arguing that socialist states are beset by problems that their institutional structures are unable to handle, the contributors agree that virtually all of the states examined require some form of immediate reform if they are to prevail as legitimate and valuable systems of government.
Following essays on the overall complexities of change in socialist states and detailed analyses of six Eastern European countries and the Soviet Union, the editors conclude with a valuable discussion of the dominant patterns that have appeared in the experiences of the socialist state system.
