Twenty-five years later... Things didnt turn out so bad. /In most postcommunist states, life has improved, often dramatically. Citizens enjoy higher living standards, broader political rights, greater autonomy and personal dignity. Their countries resemble not necessarily those in the West, but others at comparable levels of economic development. Those levels of development have, in turn, converged towards those typical of each postcommunist state’s neighborhood. The communist bloc’s rigid iron curtain has given way to a pattern of gentler cartographical gradients. /
