Economies in Transition


Book Description

This paper is a contribution to efforts to increase the understanding of changes in the transition economies, with an emphasis on agriculture, focusing on Hungary and Poland. The author draws on over three decades of experience in working in Central and Eastern Europe. After evaluating the policy and programme responses of Hungary and Poland to the radical changes associated with their transitions towards market economies, the publication draws lessons of value to economies that are not as far along in their own transitions.










The Hungarian Agricultural Miracle?


Book Description

This book examines Soviet agriculture in post-1945 Hungary. It demonstrates how the agrarian lobby, a development following the 1956 revolution, led to contact with the West which allowed for the creation of an effective agricultural system. The author argues that this ‘Hungarian agricultural miracle,’ a hybrid of American technology and Soviet structures, was fundamental to the success of Hungarian collectivization.
