Communism's Shadow: Historical Legacies and Contemporary Political Attitudes Hardcover - 2017
by Grigore Pop-Eleches; Joshua Tucker
From the rear cover
"This is a pioneering and fascinating analysis. While previous scholarship has examined the impact of communist legacies on institutions and collective actors, Pop-Eleches and Tucker focus on the behavioral legacies of communism: how living through communism changed political attitudes and beliefs regarding democracy, markets, social welfare, and gender equality. Compelling, rigorous, and innovative, this study is a must-read for all those interested in authoritarian legacies, post-communist regimes, and the formation of political values."--Anna Grzymala-Busse, Stanford University
"Both sophisticated and accessible, Communism's Shadow is a remarkable, compelling contribution to our understanding of political culture, tracing how years of personal exposure to communist regimes shaped transitory and sometimes enduring perceptions of democracy, economic markets, state social welfare guarantees, and gender equality."--G. Bingham Powell Jr., University of Rochester
"The impressive theoretical breadth and empirical depth of Communism's Shadow befit its monumental subject--how decades of Soviet communism shaped (and continue to shape) the political and social attitudes of ordinary people. Pop-Eleches and Tucker's analysis is fascinating and persuasive."--Larry M. Bartels, Vanderbilt University
"Looking at post-Soviet countries and ordinary members of the general public, Communism's Shadow investigates the argument that cultural legacies from the past influence current political attitudes and behaviors. This book is the first to systematically test this theory and is undoubtedly a landmark study in the field of comparative politics."--James L. Gibson, Washington University in St. Louis
"Communism's Shadow compares the extent to which attitudes toward democracy, the market, the welfare state, and gender equality in post-communist nations differ from opinions found in the rest of the world. Taking on a perennially important topic with considerable sophistication and care, this terrific book will be widely read."--Timothy Frye, Columbia University
