Offering a retrospective view of how the system operated in Communist Czechoslovakia, this book is an important voice in the discussion about the systems of central planning. The unique features of the book include in-depth research comprising both archival records and analyses of around 75 interviews conducted with period managers across a wide range of management levels. They provided evidence of pervasive inefficiency resulting in appalling economic outcomes. The book begins with a background to the politico-sociological system in Czechoslovakia and proceeds to describe the Marxist-Leninist ideological foundation of the regime, which underpinned the formal setting of the Czechoslovak model. These initial chapters set the context for the subsequent analysis of the real functioning of the system. The book explores the economic outcomes that must be understood as a natural consequence of the ways in which this system operated. The author finishes by answering the important question of why centrally planned economies trailed behind the market economies. The book’s unique use of the interview research format brings a vivid, close-up view of the everyday economic life in the centrally planned system. This will be a valuable contribution to the discussion surrounding the day-to-day reality of the system, which was found to be more colourful than is generally deemed. The book will appeal to both economic historians and students of economic history. A warning against repeating past mistakes, this book will also be of interest to those seeking a greater knowledge of the realities and consequences of centrally planned economies.

Dr Myant presents a detailed account of the development and performance of the Czech economy over a period of forty years, and reveals the problems and tensions created by the chosen system of centralised planning. Dr Myant's conclusion is that any economic reform will have little substance unless accompanied by appropriate political change.

Czechoslovakia, at the strategic center of Europe's heartland, first underwent the famous 'velvet' revolution and subsequently split into two. Its eventual destiny is probably a leading indicator of the direction the 21st century will take. If the post-Cold War era has even the slightest chance to bring with it the lasting peace which so completely evaded the 20th century, the countries of the former Eastern Europe must become full and equal partners with the former Western Countries. Yet, the former Western countries have been generally less than enthusiastic about this idea so far. Current Economics and Politics of (ex-) Czechoslovakia details the crunching economic and political forces exploding in the center of Europe. The contributors present in-depth analyses which constitute essential reading.
