Evolution of the Hungarian Economy, 1848-1998: One-and-a-Half Centuries of Semi-Successful Modernization, 1848-1989

This volume is a major contribution to Hungarian economic history since the middle of the nineteenth century. In this first volume of two on the evolution of that economy, the authors focus on the beginnings of the modern capitalist economy (1848-1914), on economic nationalism (1918-1944) and on the socialist attempt at modernization (1945-1989).
