First sentence: The idea for this volume germinated within the intellectual climate of the 1980s and 1990s, which was suffused with the experience and conceptualisations of the expansion of worldwide market activity, including the formation of market societies in the former socialist regions of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union.
