Abstract (may include machine translation)
The article attempts to survey factors and struct ures making the transition from state socialism to a pluralistic market order a long and bumpy road in the region. Abolition of the one party rule does not automatically lead to the sophisticated set of communnication and interaction which constitute the market system. On the contrary, various socio-economic, structural, institutional and environmental constraints pur severe limits to the driving forces of transition. However, the long-range tendency is the emergence of the pluralistic order, although the time it will take will be longer and the road more troublesome than most new political forces and governments anticipate.
