Location: 206F (MTCC NORTH BUILDING)
RC20 Comparative Sociology (host committee) Language: English
Almost thirty years after the collapse of the communism and a proclaimed victory of liberalism in the former communist countries of Europe and Asia we still know little about successes and failures of building capitalist economic and political structures and institutions. Even less sociologists are concerned with comparative perspectives and comparative researches of social exterior and initiations in the newly established countries. In other words, a comprehensive academic agenda aimed at deepening our knowledge about the post-communist dynamics is still missing. The aspiration of a projected panel is to address this gap by presenting the work of scholars reflecting on different aspects of capitalist development in order to promote systematic exchanges that would produce theoretical and empirical knowledge about the most important aspects of the post-communism social trajectories.
