- Cíle předmětu
- The region of "post-Communist Europe" supplies a rich variation of countries' economic and political performance: Some states are politically stable and have relatively strong economies, others are more prone to internal conflicts and experience democratic backsliding. This course is designed to help explain this variation. Topics include the nature of the old regime and its breakdown, the transitions to democracy and market economy, entry into NATO and the European Union, the role of ethnic politics, democratic backsliding, and the role of international factors.
