Short description: |
Central and Eastern Europe has witnessed fundamental social, economic, and political changes over eighty years. The hecatomb of World War II, the change of national borders and class structures, the establishment of the communist system, and the Cold War shaped the modern societies of the former Warsaw Pact countries. The 1989 Autumn of Nations led to the collapse of the region's system of authoritarian socialism, the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the advent of a world order with a dominant role for the United States. The class aims to critically analyze the historical systemic transformation in Central and Eastern Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Particular emphasis will be placed on the neoliberal model of socio-economic reform and the sources of right-wing populism. Students attending the class will learn about the various models of systemic transformation that occurred in the region under study. |
