On Ba ́lint Magyar and Ba ́lint Madlovics’s The Anatomy of Post-communist Regimes—a conceptual framework, Budapest and New York: CEU Press, 2020 : Post-communist relational economies and the global political economy of late capitalism
Avlijaš, Sonja
Magyar and Madlovics’s The Anatomy of Post-Communist Regimes is an elaborate and comprehensive body-of-work which covers a lot of predominantly theoretical ground. The authors are introducing a plethora of new analytical concepts and tools, thus inviting us to think about the post-communist countries and their institutional and social contexts more authentically than we would if we were to use social and economic theories that have originated in western, liberal-democratic contexts. Since I am a political economist, my contribution to this symposium is predominantly concerned with Chapter 5 of the book, which is devoted to describing the functioning of the so-called post-communist relational economies.
