Public Opinion and Political Change in Poland, 1980-1982 (Cambridge Russian, Soviet and Post-Soviet Studies)
(This book draws on public opinion surveys conducted in Po...)
This book draws on public opinion surveys conducted in Poland during the Solidarity era to examine popular attitudes on fundamental issues of political power and on the dramatic political events of 1980-1982. These surveys, unprecedented for a communist regime, offer a unique portrait of the values and attitudes of a population in a society undergoing profound social, economic and political change. The study focuses on the citizens, who are often overlooked in studies of communist systems. As such, it provides a fresh look at the Solidarity experience from the public's point of view. It details the sources of support and opposition for the regime, the Solidarity leadership, and the policies of each. For example, support for Solidarity declined during 1981, but it remained strong, and there was little popular support for the hardline measures employed by the regime.

Revolution And Transition In East-central Europe: Second Edition (Dilemmas in World Politics)
( Eastern and Western Europe continue to change in their ...)
Eastern and Western Europe continue to change in their relationship to one another and in their ongoing dynamic with the post-Soviet states. Economic development, electoral upheaval, and the Bosnian crisis all color the transition from communism to democracy and from a Cold War outlook to a new global order still taking shape.In this fully revised and updated edition of his popular and critically acclaimed text, David Mason brings the revolutionary events of 1989 into context with the transitional yet turbulent 1990s. We see new parties, new politics, new constitutions, and new opportunities in light of economic shock therapies, left turns” in recent elections, and dissolving sovereignties and alliances. Despite savage ethnic conflict, economic scarcity, and political insecurity, Mason shows us that East-Central Europe is consolidating and reemerging as a region to be reckoned with on the global stage.

(The tumultuous events of 1989 marked a turning point in w...)
The tumultuous events of 1989 marked a turning point in world history. But the events which led to the destruction of the Berlin Wall and signalled the death of communism need to be understood in terms of the time, space, and ideology of the period. David Mason's fascinating book provides a concise synthesis of history, politics, economics, sociology, literature, philosophy, and culture, showing how all these elements combined to result in the year that promised to launch the new century on a hopeful note.
