Poland's transition from socialism to capitalism has largely been praised as a success story. In reality, however, according to this study, Poland's case is an 'incomplete' transition. Looking at the processes involved in economic transition, covering key issues including financial markets, labour markets, competition and intervention, social security, property rights and attitudes towards the changing political economy, this book provides a wide-ranging and invaluable study of economic development. It will be of great use to economists, those involved in Russian and East European studies, and political scientists.
Jan Winiecki is Professor of Economics at the European University-Viadrina, Germany, and Vice-President of the Polish Society of Market Economists. A former member of Walesa's political advisory committee, he was the founder and first president of the free market think-tank Adam Smith Research Center, and Executive Director of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. He has three books published by Routledge, most recently as the co-editor, with A. Kondratowicz, of The Macroeconomics of Transition: Developments in East-Central Europe (1993).
