Explanation:

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the end of the cold war the countries of Central and Eastern Europe made a transition to the capitalist model of development in a very short process. The relative success of this transit can only be explained if it is considered that it was accompanied by the construction of states, in a Weberian sense, in which the strengthening of democracy, the construction of nationality and the establishment of adequate social policies played a decisive role .
