Global History and DEMFAM project member Elisa-Maria Hiemer is chairing a book discussion:

About the book:

In Dziki Wschód, historian Michał Przeperski (Instytut Historii PAN) offers a compelling exploration of the post-Socialist world. Moving beyond clichés, Przeperski examines the political shifts, economic upheavals, and cultural tensions that defined the former Eastern Bloc during its transformation, as seen through the eyes of Polish citizens and their everyday experiences.
An insightful and thought-provoking guide to understanding the complex legacy of the post-Socialist era.
