Annotation
The degree course explores the significant economic and political upheavals that we are witnessing worldwide in many transition and emerging nations. These societies are making the transition from a state-controlled economy to a market economy, from autocracy to democracy. The transition nations include the successor states of the former Soviet Union, the countries of Eastern and Southeastern Europe, and transition economies in Asia such as China and Vietnam. The programme also offers relevant insights into the emerging nations of Latin America and Africa.
