"Transitions": the last issue
The last issue of "Transitions: Changes in Post-Communist Societies" (Vol.4
No.1 June 1997) has been released recently. This journal (which's publishe
is Jan Urban and which is, in my view, the most serious of all numerous
similar publications) is quite voluminous, and it is not easy to review the
content even of a single issue. This is why, I will just mention some of the
publications:
>From the editor (Michael T.Kaufman) - "Of Transition(s), Internationalism
and Change" (overview of journals and other editions named Transitions)
Letters
Notes from along the way (brief reports on Russia, Transcaucasia, Central
Asia, Slovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, etc)
Several comments on Central Asia ("From Khan To Tsar To Comrade To Khan" by
David Rieff, "Same Game Second Round" by Bruce Pannier, Adam Michnik's
interview with Nursultan Nazarbayev)
"Bosnia: The Test of Europe" by Dragan Veselinov ("...the breakup of teh
former Yugoslavia and the dubious 'peace' in Bosnia have dimmed hopes not
only for multiethnic unity in that region but throughout Europe, both East
and West")
"The Seach for 'Russian Idea'" by Elena Chinyaeva and some more papers
related to the same topic: "Russia's Broken "Wheel Of Ideologies'" by Peter
Rutland (Amalrik's "Wheel of Ideologies" meant), "We Have To Return Home" (P
.Prohazkova interviews I.Chubais)
"Pyramids Of Slime" (Fatos T.Luboja on Albania)
"Ukraine's Delicate Balancing Act" by Volodimir Pedchenko
