Conclusion: Ideologies in postsocialist transition 30 years on (Ondřej Slačálek)Reviews“The book provides an informative and reasoned compilation of local leftist academic theory, which could serve as a starting point for further discussion and investigation. I recommend that it be read especially by scholars of regional studies who wish to confront their sometimes rather standardised methods and presuppositions critically as well as by academics and activists interested in explanations of the emergence of right-wing political forces … as well as in potential resources for promoting leftist approaches in the region.” (Nina Krienke, Europe-Asia Studies, July 24, 2023) Author InformationAgnes Gagyi is a sociologist.
