The ideology of modernization and the policy of materialism : The day after for the socialists

Post-communist parties in East-Central Europe can be divided by their policies of modernization or nationalism. Where the political of nationalism had been occupied by parties with a non-communist past, the new socialists returning to power had no option other than to follow a rather undefined policy of modernization which embraces a sort of pro-capitalist policy 'with a human face'. The clearest example of this policy is the governing Hungarian Socialist Party, which returned to power in 1994 and reached a consolidation of democracy by using the ideology of non-ideological modernization. This was not far from the technocratic orientation of reform communists in the late 1980s so, paradoxically, this type of consolidation has the aura of restoration. The different explanations for the return of former communists offer alternative answers to the change in voters' behaviour as well. Although the policies of 'modernizing socialists' can negatively influence the quality of democracy, in general – unlike the case of 'nationalizing socialists' – it does not mean a return to the undemocratic past.

Anarchism Yesterday and Today

The Legacy of Dictatorship and the Political Change in East Central Europe

In the postcommunist transition, not only is the earlier dictatorial political system replaced by a more liberal or democratic one, but also, the collectivized & centrally planned economy is replaced by a market economy based on private ownership. Here, examined is the nature of posttotalitarian authoritarianism in Hungary, with focus on the concept & process of transition to democracy, & the chief actors of the change. Also discussed is the compatibility of democracy & poverty, arguing that a democratic outcome is possible, although the temptation of nationalism is greater than in the previous southern European & southern Asian transitions. 2 Tables, 22 References.

Party formation and constitutional change in Hungary

After 1956, attempts to control through mobilization were effectively abandoned, and this allowed the steady development of interests and groups under Kádár's soft dictatorship, leading to an incipient civil society. The Hungarian Democratic Forum emerged from this movement to lead the country following the 1990 elections. Other parties and groups arose, basing themselves on somewhat different values or appealing to specific segments of Hungarian society, but they were brought together in the opposition round table. Key elements in the confrontation between the communists and the opposition round table included the timing of elections and the mechanism for selecting the state president, and tripartite negotiations set the country on a new course. Subsequently, a plethora of parties has emerged, as further institution-building continues the process of transition.

Civil Society and Populism in the Eastern European Democratic Transitions

Argues that the transitions to democracy in Eastern Europe, & particularly Hungary, were brought about by the movement toward civil society. Civil society describes the building of organizations outside the realm of the communist state. This movement led to democratic transition rather than revolution, but has since split into those favoring party-based elite democracy, those sticking to movement-based antiauthoritarian civil society, & those who have abandoned the political. This split has opened space for populism & nationalism. In Hungary, populism refers to people as an unstructured organic whole, promises economic strength with vague programs, & demands a real change vs the pseudorevolution. The weaker civil society becomes, the stronger populism will be. A strong civil society (& strong civil social roots in the new elite parties) could mobilize the population based on citizenship & democratic rights rather than populism. E. Blackwell
