Concept information

Preferred term

postcommunist regimes  

Definition(s)

  • The concept of postcommunism is disputed because it merely describes the previous regime in a given country and says nothing about the newly formed regimes subsequent to the collapse of communism. As such, the concept of postcommunism is imprecise, both as a descriptive and as an analytical category in social science. [Source: International Encyclopedia of Political Science; Postcommunist Regimes]
