Viac o knihe The Routledge Handbook of 1989 and the Great Transformation (Anastassiya Schacht, Thuc Linh Nguyen Vu, Sheng Peng, Rosamund Johnston, Philipp Ther, Magdalena Baran-Szoltys, Jannis Panagiotidis, Anna Calori)
Edited by: Rosamund Johnston, Jannis Panagiotidis, Magdalena Baran-Szoltys, Anna Calori, Thuc Linh Nguyen Vu, Sheng Peng, Anast
This cutting-edge collection of essays analyzes the pivotal year of 1989 and the transformation processes that resulted from a historical perspective. It takes the events of that momentous year as a pivot to explore longer-term processes of economic, social, political, and cultural transformation linked to the rise of neoliberalism and globalization since the 1970s and enduring until now. Referencing the work of Karl Polanyi, the handbook advances four main arguments: that the “great transformation” presented here started earlier than 1989; that its legacies linger in spaces, practices, and objects; that in order to grasp the scale of what happened around 1989, it is important to bring Eastern and Central Europe into conversation with other global regions; and that the former Eastern Bloc served as an important node in a larger, global transformation.
Insisting on the “Second World’s” place in the global history of the past five decades, this handbook challenges straightforward core-periphery dichotomies. The contributions to this volume provide different case studies—some national, some comparative, some international or global—each illustrating particular trends and developments. The handbook is directed at students and scholars of contemporary history of East Central Europe, of global and economic history, and at scholars of sociology, anthropology, and political science interested in post-1989 transformation, neoliberalism, and globalization.
