This comprehensive text covers the developments in the domestic politics of the formerly communist area of Europe: Russia, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Belarus, former Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Romania, Eastern Germany, Moldova, Lithuania, and Albania. The book comprises four chronologically divided parts: 1989, 1990-91, 1992-93, 1994-96, all of which are similarly structured: An opening chapter alerts the reader to the general themes and points of analysis that will emerge in discussion of the individual states. The second chapter then deals with the former Soviet Union, and the third with what was formerly called "Eastern Europe".
