Early transition was characterised by debate over shock therapy and gradualism as alternative reform strategies. Other important debates concerned the nature of the former USSR. Was it ever socialist and what were its laws of motion? What implications does the old system have for the course of post communist reforms? These are among the key issues analysed in this book, through a mix of conceptual analysis and an interesting selection of country studies.
