Political culture and post-communism

About this book

"This volume brings together leading scholars in the field to re-engage with the concept of political culture in the light of recent theoretical development in social science and to consider its empirical value in post-Communist conditions, where there has been great social and economic uncertainty and hardship, where state structures, ideology and even national identities have been undermined, and where, therefore, the role of political culture as a source of social understanding and action may have radically changed. These contributions point to the ongoing value of the concept as well as some specific limitations."--Jacket.
