Summary/Abstract: The East European countries’ transition towards market economy and democratic governance seems blocked. In this context, the paper argues that integration with the EU and NATO might offer a second chance for turning the transition process successful. From all causes of this delayed economic and democratic development, I chose to analyse the one essential for Romania: obstruction of free and fare access to resources and services by a narrow group of transition winners.
