A decade ago, playwright dissident Vaclav Havel led an almost bloodless revolution against Czechoslovakia's hardline communist regime. In the years that followed, the country split apart into two independent Czech and Slovak states, each taking radically different paths to reform. This book examines the core issues at work in the last decade, focusing on the political, economic, and philosophical underpinnings of the reform process.

内容説明

Czechoslovakia, one of the most rigid and authoritarian of the former Soviet Union's satellite states, started the transition from communism with high hopes. But a decade of change exposed the full extent of the damage wrought to the country through decades of communist rule; the country could not hold together, splitting apart into two independent states in 1993.

内容説明

A decade ago, playwright dissident Vaclav Havel led an almost bloodless revolution against Czechoslovakia's hardline communist regime. In the years that followed, the country split apart into two independent Czech and Slovak states, each taking radically different paths to reform. The Czech Republic became famous for Premier Vaclav Klaus's sweeping free-market reform plans, while Slovakia fell under the shadow of Vladimir Meciar's increasingly authoritarian rule. While few had any illusions about Meciar's Slovakia, the Czech Republic's status as the darling of the eastern European transition came crashing to the ground in the late 1990s as Klaus's reforms were exposed as a sham. Havel and Klaus were also brought into sharp conflict as two diametrically opposed visions of the world clashed in public. Ironically, at around the same time, Slovakia's fortunes turned around. This book examines the core issues at work in the last decade, focusing on the political, economic and philosophical underpinnings of the reform process.
