		The year was 1989 and Orban, the last speaker to address the crowd, calmly waited his turn as his predecessors — all graying dissidents still wary of the crippled communist regime — spoke vaguely of past accomplishments and the need for democratization.

		In addition to meeting his declared goal of getting Hungary ready for the E.U. by 2002, Orban must also bridge the gulf between the relatively prosperous west of the country and the impoverished east, where unemployment is more than double the national average.

		The chapters trace political consequences of economic reform that range from the decline of the central state's fiscal dominance to the revitalization of long-suppressed ethnic loyalties.
		Revised papers from a 1992 conference describe the quiet revolution from within the communist parties of China and Hungary in the wake of economic reform, looking at departures from the planned economy and concessions to the private sector from sociological, political science, and anthropological perspectives.
