description The introduction also mentions that prevailing theories of change seem inadequate to deal with the abrupt and massive changes that occurred with the collapse of the communist systems. [...]a better understanding of change in the post-communist system should also improve our general understanding of change. Feige indicates that where informal institutions clash with formal institutions and favor noncompliance and distrust of government, the consequences are predatory behavior, significant underground economic activity, exploitation of property rights and organized crime. [...]the former Soviet Union, writes Leitzel in chapter five, was characterized by rule evasion, where people were forced by the rigidities of central planning to adopt informal or illegal activities. According to the World Bank's Poverty Monitor, though, the comparable 1995 poverty rates were 9 percent, 22 percent, and 23 percent respectively (World Bank).
