内容説明

The transition from socialism experienced by the countries of Eastern and Central Europe during the 1990s has been recognised as a profound historical watershed. It is only in the 21st century however, that the meanings and dimensions of "post-socialism" are becoming apparent. The use of the "biographical perspective" in research provides a unique avenue for studying these changes. This text is an edited volume that brings the work of many of the most advanced and active biographical researchers working on Eastern Europe together in one volume.
