It looks at the shared history of these countries as part of the erstwhile Austro-Hungarian Empire. While the V4 states experienced, for decades, the regressive authoritarian Soviet rule, Austria escaped this fate. The question is how some common historical roots, impact of the communist regime, and transition paths have shaped the specific social structures of V4 countries which differ despite belonging to a relatively homogeneous region. The book examines the changes and developments through analyses of large comparative surveys and other data collected after 1990, most notably using the European Unions survey "Statistics on Income and Living Conditions" that has been fielded since 2005. The book starts with an outline of the long-term developments in key social structure dimensions which occurred during the post-communist transition. The analytical chapters then discuss topics previously not much examined in social stratification perspective: subjective well-being, couples status, cultural activities and differences among retirees. This book is intended for social scientists working on stratification research, and, specifically, V4 societies and politics. 001449148 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 16, 2022). 001449148 650_0 $$aSocial stratification$$zEurope, Central. 001449148 651_0 $$aEurope, Central$$xSocial conditions. 001449148 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001449148 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3031094573$$z9783031094576$$w(OCoLC)1322368583 001449148 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in sociology.$$x2212-6376 001449148 852__ $$bebk 001449148 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-09458-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001449148 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1449148$$pGLOBAL_SET 001449148 980__ $$aBIB 001449148 980__ $$aEBOOK 001449148 982__ $$aEbook 001449148 983__ $$aOnline 001449148 994__ $$a92$$bISE
