Summary

• "Transforming Management in Central and Eastern Europe analyses changes in enterprises in seven European countries since 1989 - Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia, and Slovakia. Economic trends have differed vastly between these countries, but, nevertheless, there are common objectives, common problems, and significant similarities in developments. This book shows the continuities, as well as the discontinuities, between the Socialist and the post-Socialist periods."
• "Professor Martin also examines the strategies of western companies towards business in the region, especially the development of joint ventures. Western business has massively expanded its links with the region, in particular trading links, and represents the major source of new technology and new management practices. But Central and Eastern Europe remain on the periphery of global capitalism."--Jacket.
