The social life of measurement
Although ‘culture-led regeneration’ has been critiqued as both a concept and practice, it is clear that policy-makers continue to make efforts to use cultural activity of varying forms to achieve ends which could be (and are) described in terms of urban ‘regeneration’. Whilst the idea of culture-led urban regeneration had gained considerable prominence in a range of policy by the early twenty-first century, many questions have remained over how e…

Civil Society and Policy Actors in Post-communist Hungary
The paper seeks to contribute to the debate on the political strength or weakness of civil society in Eastern Europe by focusing directly on relations between social actors and policy-makers in the broader context of the post-communist political settlement in Hungary. Drawing on concepts from the literature on polity and governance, the paper takes the example on social policy-making in Hungary in the late 1990s and early 2000s to explore the com…
The “scouse wedding” and other myths
This paper considers the development of a “Liverpool model” for culture-led urban regeneration, based on an analysis of the competition to become the UK's first City of Culture (UKCC) for 2013. The paper outlines New Labour's developing approach to culture-led regeneration, placing the UKCC in the context of the use of culture for various local development policies, particularly city branding and urban regeneration (Evans & Shaw, 2004; McGuigan, …
The Picnic on the Border
And the Transformations in Eastern Europe
In the first decade after the regime changes that brought an end to communist rule in Eastern Europe, a central focus of academic writing on the events of 1989 was a theoretical debate on the signi
Household Production and Capitalist Development in Contemporary Russia
This essay reviews four recent books based on research on the development of capitalism and the position of household-based farming in post-Soviet Russia. Each of the books represents a different set of conceptual assumptions and is based on different methods of enquiry. It is argued that a problematic feature of much of the literature on this topic is that it begins from the assumption that successful capitalist development in Russian agricultur…
Democratization and State–Society Relations in East Central Europe
There has been much debate on the character of relations between state and society in post-communist democratic transition in East Central Europe. Approaches range from applications of corporatist theory to analyses in terms of the weakness of civil society in ECE. However, the findings of surveys of Hungarian interest group leaders conducted between 1994 and 2001 suggest that if evidence is sought on interconnections between interest group leade…

Interest Groups and the Development of Tripartism in East Central Europe
This article explores the development of tripartism in east central Europe during the 1980s and 1990s. Focusing on the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland, we examine how the reshaping of national industrial relations in each country since 1989 has been contingent on the patterns of contest between state, employers and labour in each society, patterns which in part have been shaped by the legacy of structures and relationships from the `communist'…

Reconsidering the Hungarian revolution of 1956
The fortieth anniversary of the Hungarian uprising of October‐November 1956 came fortuitously several years after the collapse of the communist system in Hungary and the Soviet Union, following which archives in both countries have been opened to scholarly scrutiny. These changes have permitted scholars ‐ and the public at large ‐to identify those events as a revolution, and to examine and document it in ways that were hitherto forbidden. The nat…
Civil society and interest representation in Hungarian political development
During its first four years of parliamentary democracy Hungary has quickly developed many aspects of a stable functioning liberal democratic political system, and at the level of formal politics it can be argued that an effective system has begun to emerge. However, doubts remain over how deeply the new democratic institutions are rooted in Hungarian society more widely. Civil society is not yet firmly in place, although there are signs of the de…
Political transition in Hungary
Hungary appears to have enjoyed relative success so far in the transition from communist rule to democracy and the market. Multi‐party elections and a parliamentary system are established, with a clear division of political functions; foreign investment is flowing in, and a private sector is developing. To some extent the success builds on the reform experience of the communist era. Further progress depends in part on the international environmen…
Privatization and social interests in Eastern Europe
This article offers an overview of the range of policies introduced by governments in East and Central Europe aimed at the privatization of their economies, and assesses the extent to which such policies have been implemented so far. It then goes on to explore the different interests involved in the political debates and competitions over privatization and offers a conceptual scheme for their further analysis
USSR under Gorbachev
It is now a little more than two years since Mikhail Gorbachev became General Secretary of the Soviet Communist Party, and, since then, the constant theme in the news from the Soviet Union has been one of change. This has been reflected in the style of leadership, and in the slogans adopted by the new administration, such as 'reconstruction', 'renewal', and 'acceleration'. There has also been much talk of new policy directions, but how significan…

Inequality and Class in Research on Peasant Societies
This article offers a critique of the tendency in research on peasant farming to categorise households into groups using measures of inequality as the main criteria. Since such groupings are used to make generalisations about processes of class formation, or about differences in production organisation between peasant farms, it is suggested that factors which are more direct indicators of relations of production should be employed. Two approaches…
Awkward Class or Awkward Classes? Class relations in the Russian peasantry before collectivisation
This article develops some criticisms of Teodor Shanin's thesis concerning the class structure of the Russian peasantry up to the end of the 1920s. Rival Marxist approaches are then discussed, especially that of L. N. Kritsman and his school who saw the relations of production of the Russian peasantry as characterised by exploitative class relations between households and thus called into question all approaches asserting the social homogeneity o…
European Capitals of Culture
The European City/Capital of Culture Programme was launched in 1985 and the ECoC title has been awarded to nearly 60 cities in 30 countries. The Programme has become a key platform for city positioning and a catalyst for economic and cultural regeneration. Immediate cultural, social and economic impacts are common and the capacity to secure long-term effects, though harder to evidence, has grown in key areas such as urban image change and tourism…
