{"product_id":"restructuring-networks-in-post-socialism-stark-grabher-9780198290209","title":"Restructuring Networks in Post-Socialism: Legacies, Linkages and Localities","description":"This book is about change in Central and Eastern Europe, and about how we think about social and economic change more generally. In contrast to the dominant 'transition framework' that examines organizational forms in Eastern Europe according to the degree to which they conform to, or depart from, the blueprints of already existing capitalist systems, this book examines the innovative character, born of necessity, in which actors in the post-socialist setting are restructuring organizations and institutions by redefining and recombining resources. Instead of thinking of these recombinations as accidental aberrations, the book explores their evolutionary potentials. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe starting premise of \u003cem\u003eRestructuring Networks in Post-Socialist Societies\u003c\/em\u003e is that the actual unit of entrepreneurship is not the isolated individual personality but the social network that links firms and the actors within them. Drawing insight from evolutionary economics and from the new methods of network analysis, leading sociologists, economists, and political scientists report on changes in organizational forms in Hungary, Poland, Eastern Germany, Russia, and the Czech Republic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stark Grabher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198290209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198290209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Clarendon Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/20\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.81d","brand":"Stark Grabher","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47419011891455,"sku":"9780198290209","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_199a790f-54e5-4cad-b1cb-102df6e025e9.jpg?v=1761508912","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/restructuring-networks-in-post-socialism-stark-grabher-9780198290209","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
