Inequality and Social Structure During the Transition

This unique collection studies and compares emerging social structures in transitional societies and discusses the life of the large majority of workers (farmers and state-sector employees as well as the bottom of socially deprived and marginalized people). The contributors look into causes of high inequality and poverty in Russia and other CIS countries, as well as more equal income distribution and higher levels of social welfare in Central Europe.
