Summary

In Eastern Europe and Latin America two trends are under way: 1) far-reaching reforms to convert economies from inward-oriented, state-dominated models to more open, market-driven approaches; and 2) efforts to consolidate democratic political openings replacing earlier authoritarian regimes. These reforms often conflict, yet paradoxically the success of each is crucial to the other. Building on earlier case studies in both regions this volume explores issues common to both regions and critical to the prospects of economic and political reforms, with contributions from Joan Nelson, Jacek Kochanowicz, Kalman Mizsei, and Oscar Munoz.
