Good Governance in Central and Eastern Europe: The Puzzle of Capitalism by Design
Herman Willem HoenLog in to track your reading progress.
Overview
The implementation of a democratic order embedded in a market economy environment has proved immensely difficult. Furthermore, this process is subject to tremendous variety within Central and Eastern Europe. Ten years after the collapse of communism it was apparent that only Poland and Slovenia surpassed their 1989 levels of GDP. This book scrutinises the arrangements to enforce good governance in this area both by means of external help and domestic political leadership.Synopsis
Hoen (international political economy, U. of Groningen, The Netherlands) offers seven contributions which collectively explore the notions of good governance for promoting market reforms in the transition economies of Central and Eastern Europe. In answering the question of how to promote and enforce good governance, the three aspects that are stressed by the authors are economic performance, external conditionality caused by the international financial institutions, and elite formations and domestic constraints.
