| Zusammenfassung: | Over a decade has passed since the collapse of communism, yet post-communist citizens are still far less likely to join voluntary organizations than people from other countries. Why do post-communist citizens mistrust public organizations? What explains this pattern of weak civil society? And what does this mean for democracy in the region? This engaging study addresses these questions with a provocative argument about the enduring impact of the communist experience on its countries and citizens. Howard argues that the experience of mandatory participation in state-controlled organizations and vibrant private networks during the communist period, combined with the disappointment with post-communist developments, have left most citizens with a lasting aversion to public activities. Howard analyzes the findings from over 30 democratic countries on the World Values Survey and also presents extensive and original evidence from his own research, focused on Eastern Germany and Russia |

In-Depth Interviews Over a decade has passed since the collapse of communism, yet post-communist citizens are still far less likely to join voluntary organizations than people from other countries. Why do post-communist citizens mistrust public organizations? What explains this pattern of weak civil society? And what does this mean for democracy in the region? This engaging study addresses these questions with a provocative argument about the enduring impact of the communist experience on its countries and citizens. Howard argues that the experience of mandatory participation in state-controlled organizations and vibrant private networks during the communist period, combined with the disappointment with post-communist developments, have left most citizens with a lasting aversion to public activities. Howard analyzes the findings from over 30 democratic countries on the World Values Survey and also presents extensive and original evidence from his own research, focused on Eastern Germany and Russia Geschichte 1989-2002 gnd rswk-swf Demokratisierung Civil society / Europe, Eastern Democratization / Europe, Eastern Non-governmental organizations / Europe, Eastern Bürgerliche Gesellschaft (DE-588)4112846-1 gnd rswk-swf Demokratisierung (DE-588)4124941-0 gnd rswk-swf Gesellschaft (DE-588)4020588-5 gnd rswk-swf Osteuropa (DE-588)4075739-0 gnd rswk-swf Osteuropa (DE-588)4075739-0 g Gesellschaft (DE-588)4020588-5 s Demokratisierung (DE-588)4124941-0 s 1\p DE-604 Geschichte 1989-2002 z 2\p DE-604 3\p DE-604 Bürgerliche Gesellschaft (DE-588)4112846-1 s 4\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-01152-5 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-81223-8 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511840012 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
