"The uniquely twentieth--century task of politically crafting the transformation of totalitarian regimes is analysed by Claus Offe with unprecedented intelligence and political wisdom." Professor John Keane, Centre for the Study of Democracy, University of Westminster "One of the main virtues of Offea s book is that it does bring the West into the frame of analysis, not simply as a fixed and unquestioned standard by means of which to judge postcommunist "progress" -- but as an active player in the transition process." Times Higher Education Supplement "Claus Offea s collection of essays (some of them already familiar) could well provide the essential handbook to the aspiring transitologist." International Affairs "This is more a collection of essays on these various important themes than a book focusing on a single issue. It is indeed the characteristic of Claus Offea s book that, instead of a single thread in his analysis, it covers a great variety of themes. This is one of the riches of the book." Economic Systems "This book promises to become a seminal work in the study of regime transition. Offea s work is inspiring, demanding, irritating, brilliant. Essential reading." Political Studies "This is a stimulating and interesting book which can be recommended for courses on transition and development." Europe--Asia Studies "This is probably the best book yet to be written placing eastern Germany in the broader context of post--communist transition ... [It] will provide a useful teaching aid for use with undergraduate students." German Politics "Offe has delivered an exceptional synthesis of his views about the subject." Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management
In recent years the countries of eastern Europe have been undergoing a process of rapid social and political transformation. This process has brought with it common problems experienced on different levels: economic crisis, growing social insecurity and injustice, ethnic conflicts and civil strife. In addition, post-communist societies have encountered political, legal and social difficulties in coming to term with their own past. In this book, Claus Offe provides a lucid and insightful account of this complex process of transformation.
