This volume assembles detailed, empirically grounded studies of eleven states--Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia, and the former East Germany--that went on to join the European Union. Each chapter analyzes the political, economic, and social transformations that have taken place in these nations, using a comparative approach to identify structural similarities and assess outcomes relative to one another as well as the rest of the EU."--Provided by publisher Analysis bulgaria business comparative approach czech republic diplomacy east germany economic liberalization engaging estonia eu europe european integration european nations european union former soviet republics history human condition hungary immigration and immigrants latvia lithuania money and power poland political ideologies political intrigue political science political power and wealth retrospective revolutionaries romania slovakia slovenia social issues social transformations soviet union Notes Originally published: Göttingen : Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2013 Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed Subject Post-communism -- Europe Democracy -- Europe, Eastern Democracy -- Europe, Central LAW -- International.
