The transformation process from the planned to the market economy in the East Central European countries is a laboratory of applying economic theory and business ethics to an enormous historical transition in the economic and political system. Authors from the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia analyse the economic, philosophical and political problems of the transition process. They discuss the economic and legal questions of the privatization of socialized property, examine critically whether pure Liberalism has been and is able to cope with the transition problems, and investigate the role and impact of business ethics in the transition process. This volume contributes to the theory of the role of business ethics in periods of institutional change.

Explores the political consequences of economic reform in some 20 post-communist countries, using primary quantitative data and statistical analyses to demonstrate that there is no universally applicable economic reform strategy and that popular democracy is often the foundation of a successful economy. Shows that generalized models are not productive when studying the complexity of post- communist transformation, and argues that danger to democracy comes from the alienation of citizens and the collapse of public service and education systems. The author is research professor at the University of Aarhus, Denmark. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

This book presents a broader, more courageous interpretation of economic thinking and associated tasks of policy making. The reader will go far beyond traditional boundaries of economic thought and practice. While conceptualizing in broader manner, the fundamentals of economic and managerial thought in the context of today’s transformation process, it offers a genuine account regarding the pace of adaptation and change, in the wake of globalization’s latest phase. It asserts that knowledge management has become an essential component beyond previous assumptions, while complimenting and enhancing larger achievements at domestic and international levels. Increasingly, necessary managerial skill levels and ability, including enhanced leadership skills, effective communication, and capacities for knowledge mobilization, while enhancing ethical outcomes, help lead societies towards greater success amidst greater uncertainty.

The book represents a major examination regarding the current practice of international relations and world politics. It analyzes the international relations of large, medium, and smaller sized actors, and how they influence the larger dynamics and ebb and flow of the international system. While assessing the perspectives of 21st century international systems, it also examines how relations between actors may improve or worsen, surely the most timely issue presently facing global and relational politics. Through globalization, the concept of a more balanced version of the American Dream has extended worldwide. Irrespective of wealth or poverty, globalization’s promise of prosperity has been adopted eagerly, despite uneven progress along the way. Together with the larger realities of Neo-Liberal thinking and influence, where global and cyber markets have evolved with little supervision, we have seen a move from enlightened self interest to the reality of pure self-interest. This book addresses the larger ethical implications of this global trend.
