Este libro analiza la situación de los mercados laborales y las políticas sociales en Europa Central y del Este durante la transición postcomunista. Examina los desafíos del desempleo, la pobreza y el aumento de las tasas de mortalidad, y propone políticas para desarrollar los recursos humanos a través de mercados laborales más efectivos, alivio de la pobreza mejor diseñado, educación mejorada y atención médica. El autor destaca la importancia del papel del Estado en estas áreas y subraya que el diseño de políticas debe tener en cuenta las realidades políticas y administrativas para que la reforma tenga éxito.
