Book excerpt: There is limited scholarship that has considered gender, management and organizational analysis in Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries. The restructuring of state socialism which began in the 1980s with perestroika marked the start of industrial re-organisation across post-socialist states with large scale privatisation, worker layoffs and the development of managerial strategies away from centralised planning systems. These political and economic developments combined with globalisation, the internationalisation of work practices, increased foreign investment and business development.
