Rezensionen

'In Understanding Post-Communist Transformation, Richard Rose provides an unrivalled perspective on the postcommunist democratic experience. Using a unique set of surveys conducted over 18 years in all of the post-communist societies, he charts the sometimes uncertain course of the democratic transformation. This book is essential reading for those wanting to understand postcommunist politics and the transition to democracy.' - Ian McAllister, Australian National University

'Richard Rose is one of the worlds leading political scientists, and one of those who have the most to contribute to the study of a changing Europe. This new collection has much to say to comparativists who want to make sense of Russia, but just as much to Russianists who want to place their country in a meaningful comparative perspective. Essential reading.' - Stephen White, Univeristy of Glasgow, internationally known expert on Communist and post Communist societies
