Description
The Future of Market Transition brings together scholars from a wide variety of theoretical perspectives, different nations and
different empirical research traditions to examine the implications of market transitions for individual life chances, state economic
policy and social stratification systems.
The volume includes scholarship that focuses on both single nation and cross-national research,
plus research contributions that compare state socialist/former state socialist political economies with conditions elsewhere in the
world.
