Descarca referat The Ceausescu Regime,

Romania is an important country to study for many reasons. The fact that it is an example of a command economy which took Stalinism to its absolute extremes without any previous attempts at reform makes it an ideal case study for transition economists and theorists. Furthermore, it is also a country which had no national debt immediately after the revolution yet seems to have received no economic benefits from this fact. Finally, it is adopting the gradualist approach to transition as opposed to the “Big Bang” approaches of Bulgaria and Poland and thus the effectiveness of this approach remains to be seen.
