Synopsis

Thirty years after the fall of the Iron Curtain, the initial enthusiasm for democracy in Central and Eastern Europe has shifted toward profound "political disenchantment." While integration into Europe brought freedom, the rapid transition caused severe economic shocks, social inequality, and mass emigration. The author highlights a growing distrust in elites, the rise of illiberalism, and a collective feeling of being a "perpetual periphery." Understanding these causes is crucial to preventing this disillusionment from becoming fatal for the European project. THIS ABSTRACT IS GENERATED WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
