The Sharing Economy?: Informal Economic Practices in the Post-socialist Countryside
Original language description
In the last quarter-century European post-socialist societies have experienced some of the most profound instances of economic neoliberalisation and globalisation. While in practical terms the processes of liberalisation, marketisation and privatisation were initially externally driven by international institutions, domestically the market also enjoyed an elavated symbolic status as part of the introduction of a package of ‘civilising mechanisms‘destroyed under socialism (Holy 1996). This macro-economic restructuring occurred against the background of a set of widespread, yet ‘hidden‘ non-market economic practices at the micro-level such as sharing, caring and mutual help widespread in particular in the countryside. In some areas (household food provisioning, house maintenance and construction) these socities have developed hybrid economies in which vibrant informal economic practices intersect with market-based relatonships.
