The most comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the successes and failures of twenty-seven countries post-communism transformation. Looking at life after the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989, the book examines and contrasts why some countries have virtually completed their transformation to a liberal polity and economy, while others lag behind. Those that followed a strategy of early and steady reforms on economic, political, institutional and social dimensions have exhibited impressive results in economic performance, attracting foreign direct investment, dealing with the social costs of the transformation and establishing a liberal democracy. Unlike those that have moved gradually, with some countries in a frozen transition after being captured by powerful oligarch groups who have drained considerable state assets.

La 4e de couv. indique : "Il y a vingt ans, l'Union soviétique s'effondrait dans un climat étonnamment pacifique au regard du déchaînement potentiel. Néanmoins, si la situation semble stable à l'échelle régionale, au sein de certains États l'implosion soviétique a laissé des traces sanglantes. [...] Vingt ans plus tard, le tableau n'a guère changé: les combats des années 1991-1993 ont laissé la place à une situation de "ni guerre, ni paix". Comment ces conflits ont-ils éclaté ? Pourquoi perdurent-ils ? Quelles sont les solutions possibles ? Tels sont les enjeux que posent encore aujourd'hui les conflits gelés de l'espace postsoviétique."

"From Ethnic Conflict to Stillborn Reform is the first complete treatment of the major postcommunist conflicts in both the former Yugoslavia - Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, and Serbia - and the former Soviet Union - Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova, and Tajikistan. It is also the first work that focuses not on causes but rather on consequences for democratization and market reform, the two most widely studied political outcomes in the developing world." "Building on existing work emphasizing the effects of economic development and political culture, this book offers a new, comprehensive treatment of how war affects political and economic reform." "Author Shale Horowitz employs both statistical evidence and historical case studies of the eight new nations to determine that ethnic conflict entangles, distracts, and destabilizes reformist democratic governments, while making it easier for authoritarian leaders to seize and consolidate power. As expected, economic backwardness worsens these tendencies, but Horowitz finds that powerful reform-minded nationalist ideologies can function as antidotes." "The comprehensiveness of the treatment, use of both qualitative and quantitative analysis, and focus on standard concepts from comparative politics make this book an excellent tool for classroom use, as well as a ground-breaking analysis for scholars."--BOOK JACKET
