- W275652804 abstract "Abstract: Some scholars think that the term now useless because the outcomes of in the state-socialist European countries have been consolidated. However, ongoing transformation in China, particularly the recent return of the influence of the state in both economic and social welfare domains, makes this country specific model of transition that negates the end-of-postcommunism thesis. I argue that even after more than two decades of moving away from the classical socialist system, not redundant concept. Instead, for comparative research on East Asia and Central and Eastern Europe, recognizing the past of actually existing socialism as well as its legacies would considerably contribute to our understanding of countries' diverse trajectories and performances.Keywords: postcommunism; super-communism; comparative analysis; China.Introduction: The Crisis in Comparative Sociological Studies of PostcommunismGone are the days when the subject of postcommunism was flourishing public platform for sociologists around the world to discuss pressing theoretical and empirical issues they were facing in the 1990s, particularly those who studied Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and East Asia (EA). The comparative sociological research of now in crisis. In Central and Eastern Europe, has been declared dead. A large number of Chinese sociologists, including some eminent scholars who were active in the study of European during the 1990s, are now focusing almost exclusively on Chinese domestic issues. For them there no need to take the initiative to keep themselves up-to-date on happening in normalized CEE countries - though Russia might be an exception. As renowned scholar of Eastern Europe studies, Yan Jin wrote in an Economic Observer column: It seemed that even those so-called well-informed persons had shifted their interests to elsewhere; for Eastern Europe, 'no news good news' (Jin 2009: 13). Overall, the intellectual interaction between domestic Chinese and European-American scholars of strikingly insufficient.How has this happened? The underlying crux of the crisis of postcommunist sociological study comes to larger extent from intellectual indifference - large number of researchers think the comparison between East Asian and Eastern Europe today much less intellectually exciting and intriguing than they were two decades ago. For Chinese scholars and students, transformation in postcommunist Europe believed to be settled; thus there would be no strong demand to compare these former socialist comrades to transitional societies. In other words, as one of my colleagues put it, If the European socialist countries have become consolidated part of the West, why bother to focus on these small countries, smaller than province in China?1Post-postcommunism: A European Bias?With the fall of Soviet Union in 1991, the era of spread over Eurasia. Two decades later, as people celebrate or mourn the end of all the communist regimes in Central and Eastern Europe, some scholars have been suggesting for years that itself also coming to an end. Andras Bozoki has maintained that just as neither Germany nor Italy were called postfascist countries in 1960, fifteen years after the Second World War, so Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic have shed the title of postcommunist states, fifteen years after Communism fell (Bozoki 2005: 34). And he neither the first nor the last to share this idea (Gross and Tismaneanu 2005; Holmes 2001; King 2000; Kubicek 2009).What exactly does the word postcommunism mean?2 Literally, it negative concept: an economic system understood through the termination of its past (Zolkos 2004) or by what preceded it rather than by it actually is (Stroehlein 1999: 11). In this sense, timeless term, because it indicates the death of the communist system and shift toward a more open and 'discursive' type of politics (Sakwa 1999: 1). …" @default.
