Description

Since 1989, the postcommunist societies of Eastern Europe have been subject to policy advice and political and economic pressure which assumes that the development of "free market" economies is the best route to economic growth and prosperity. This is a collection of writings that argues against the assumption that the development of free market economies and the swallowing of the myths of Anglo-American capitalism is the best option for Eastern Europe.
