Description

This paper is a contribution to efforts to increase the understanding of changes in the transition economies, with an emphasis on agriculture, focusing on Hungary and Poland. The author draws on over three decades of experience in working in Central and Eastern Europe. After evaluating the policy and programme responses of Hungary and Poland to the radical changes associated with their transitions towards market economies, the publication draws lessons of value to economies that are not as far along in their own transitions.
