The situation in Eastern Europe is much more complicated now than when the communist system fell. Whether the situation today is more promising is open to question. Have East European countries moved closer to a market economy and democracy? There is no dear answer. First, the region has become increasingly differentiated, making it hard to generalize. Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary, the first countries to start reforms, constitute a separate entity — the so-called “triangle” — whose problems differ from those of the Slavic countries of the former USSR. Second, the actual course of the “transformation” is much more complicated than was assumed in the reform programs. The reform process is characterized by new, unprecedented phenomena difficult to categorize. Third, the situation is exceptionally dynamic: it literally changes from day to day
