About this book

This accessible account of the post-communist transformation of Hungarian companies raises several important questions. How did the transition from planned economy to free market work in practice? What are the main issues now facing Hungarian business? The authors look at the ways in which a cross-section of Hungarian companies and their managers have faced the challenges of the free market system. Containing several contemporary case studies and based upon a major research project this book provides a fascinating insight into the challenges facing modern Hungary.
