Cities After Socialism is the first substantial and
authoritative analysis of the role of cities in the transition to
capitalism that is occurring in the former communist states of
Easter Europe and the Soviet Union. It will be of equal value to
urban specialists and to those who have a more general interest in
the most dramatic socio-political event of the contemporary era –
the collapse of state socialism. Written by an international group
of leading experts in the field, Cities after socialism asks and
answers some crucial questions about the nature of the emergent
post-socialist urban system and the conflicts and inequalities
which are being generated by the processes of change now occurring.
