Inhaltsangabe

Who gains and who loses from economic transformation in Eastern Europe is a key but neglected question. This book, first published in 1992, assembles evidence about earnings, inequality, and poverty in Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland, and the USSR, showing that widely-held beliefs about Eastern Europe under Communism are not borne out by the evidence.
