Populism As An Outcome Of Post-Communist Democratic Primitivism And Pro-Capitalism

Summary/Abstract: In post-communist states, there inevitably develop pro-capitalist economic, social and political structures. Post-communism cannot avoid being pro-capitalist; otherwise it loses its sense as a denial of communism. Post-communism cannot avoid democratic primitivism, either; society which is denying authoritarianism is full of illusions about “nation’s rule”. But the crash of illusions about “our own state” and contradictions of procapitalism stimulate populism. A political regime then is trapped in it and finds it difficult to solve the problems of overall trust in democracy.
