Anotace
This is one of the UPCES courses (the Undergraduate Program in Central European Studies); comprehensive information is available at https://bakalar.fhs.cuni.cz/SHV-211.html.
The course deals with main economic issues related to transition from centrally-planned economies of the Soviet bloc, Yugoslavia, and China to market economies. Compared to other similar courses, this course will be less descriptive and more analytical; we will use economic models and results of econometric studies where appropriate.
