Abstract

This volume represents a comparative, problem-centered overview of the modern history of Eastern Europe. The political, social, and cultural diversity ofEastern Europe has for decades presented authors of comprehensive works with a profound methodological challenge. This book argues that the communist “deviation” in Eastern Europe can be best understood as the intertwined product of external (Soviet) aggression and unsolved internal contradictions (economic underperformance, social inequality, and nationality conflicts) that had become since the interwar period ingrained in the collective thought of Eastern European people and the social systems of their states. The common legacy of their uncomfortable past likely constitutes the only truly profound connection that the Soviet Union managed to create among its reluctant allies.
