Summary/Abstract: The end of the 1980s was marked by the fall of communism in Central and Eastern Europe, symbolically indicated by the fall of the Berlin Wall. The former communist countries then entered the process that later became known as transition (see the literature in Ńević, 1999). This term attempts to capture the fact that the process would lead to the complete transformation of the (former) socialist regime, in contrast to the “reforms” often initiated in socialist countries that had failed to bring about change, and that they did not highlight the main flaw of socialism (see: Ńević, 1999). Transition was understood as a social change that had many dimensions: economic, political, social, etc.
