After an introduction covering the late 1930s, the study centers on the communist era, and goes on to describe changes in the post-communist period with its legacy of state socialism.0Tibor Valuch poses a series of questions. Who could be called rich or poor and how did they live in the various periods? How did living, furnishings, clothing, income and consumption mirror the structure of the society and its transformations? How could people accommodate their lifestyles to the political and social system? How specific to the regime was consumption after the communist takeover, and how did it change after the demise of the regime? The answers, based on micro-histories, statistical data, population censuses and surveys help to understand the complexities of daily life, not only in Hungary, but also in other communist regimes in east-central Europe, with insights on their antecedents and afterlives. 606 $aSocial conditions$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01919811 606 $aPost-communism$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01072730 606 $aConsumption (Economics)$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00876455 606 $aPost-communism$zHungary 606 $aConsumption (Economics)$zHungary 607 $aHungary$2fast 607 $aHungary$xSocial conditions$y1989- 607 $aHungary$xSocial conditions$y1945-1989 610 $acommunism. 610 $apostcommunism. 610 $asocial history. 610 $asocial transformations. 615 7$aSocial conditions. 615 7$aPost-communism. 615 7$aConsumption (Economics) 615 0$aPost-communism 615 0$aConsumption (Economics) 676 $a943.905 700 $aValuch$b Tibor$01076198 702 $aLo Bello$b Maya J. 712 02$aOpening the Future$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996483169403316 996 $aEveryday Life under Communism and After$92586500 997 $aUNISA
