Studies in Economic Transition

10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION

The 10 years anniversary celebration of the "Studies in Economic Transition" series coincided with the experiences of 20 years of economic transition since the fall of the Berlin Wall. The event drew together some 30 participants including the series editors, authors, reviewers and readers, who marked the success of the book series. Speeches were given by Tim Farmiloe, former publishing director of Macmillan and Brigita Schmögnerova, Vice President of the EBRD. The event took place in the department of economics of University College London in January 2009. - Jens Hölscher

General Editors: Jens Holscher, Reader in Economics, University of Brighton; and Horst Tomann, Professor of Economics, Freie University, Berlin.

This new series has been established in response to a growing demand for a greater understanding of the transformation of economic systems. It brings together theoretical and empirical studies on economic transition and economic development. The post-communist transition from planned to market economies is one of the main areas of applied theory because in this filed the most dramatic examples of change and economic dynamics can be found. The series aims to contribute to the understanding of specific major economic changes as well as to advance the theory of economic development. The implications of economic policy will be a major point of focus.
