Pressestimmen
'It is an important addition to the literature on this increasingly popular topic.' - Robert F. Miller, SEER
'This is a well-written, well-researched review of transformation processes in the former German Democratic Republic and Hungary...if an understanding of financial sector stablization, economic integration, and the role of foreign trade in transformation economies is sought, the book will prove rewarding.' - Philip J. Bryson, Slavic Review
