Synopsis

Slobodan Milacic examines the cultural barriers to establishing the Rule of Law in post-communist Central and Eastern Europe. He contends that the rapid "importation" of Western liberal models often ignores deep-seated socialist legacies and habits. Since authentic democracy depends on long-term acculturation rather than simple constitutional changes, the transition is a multi-generational process. Overcoming totalizing past ideologies requires extreme patience, a focus on compromise, and an organic shift in societal mentalities across the entire region. THIS ABSTRACT IS GENERATED WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
