“…Kollmorgen 2009: 83f). Kollmorgen (2009) with reference to Eastern Europeopts for a further distinction of additional welfare types, arguing that the Baltic states demonstrate similarities to liberal welfare regimes, while the Visegrad countries, together with Slovenia, are best classified as minimalistic welfare states in line with the Bismarck model. These insights in contemporary welfare-state research justify a theoretically driven distinction between six European areas (see line 6 of Figure 2).…”

This article examines cross-national differences in solidarity towards immigrants in the EU. This concept of solidarity is operationalized through perceived ethnic threat vs. a positive view of multicultural society. The main argument of this article is that 'classical' enduring determinants (sociodemographic factors, subjective values and structural factors) are still able to explain ethnocentrism, but these factors are enriched and mediated by a cluster of five emerging explanatory factors which reflect societal malaise. These factors include dissatisfaction with society, political distrust, fear of social decline, lack of recognition, and social distrust. The thesis of societal malaise as a powerful concept to explain contemporary restrictions of macro-solidarity is tested with a Multiple-Group Structural Equation Model using data from 21 countries of the European Social Survey (wave 6 2012). A theory-guided approach is used to categorize European nations into six heterogeneous European areas. Statistical analyses reveal that new emerging factors of societal malaise indeed act as a mediator of classical explanations of ethnocentrism. From a comparative perspective, the determinants of macro-solidarity are strongly heterogeneous throughout the six European areas particularly between the East and West of the European Union.

“…(c) Schließlich befasst sich die Forschungsrichtung der "varieties of capitalism" vor allem unter nutzung institutionenökonomischer, regulationstheoretischer oder historisch-institutionalistischer Ansätze mit dem Fragekomplex, ob und in welcher hinsicht die mittelost- und osteuropäischen Transformationen zu einem neuen Typus von Kapitalismus, demokratie oder Wohlfahrtsstaatlichkeit in und außerhalb der eu geführt haben und was dies für die globale und europäische Moderne und deren Koexistenz-, Kooperations- und Wettbewerbsverhältnisse bedeutet (bluhm und Schmidt 2008;bohle und greskovits 2007;bönker et al 2002a;Cerami und Vanhuysse 2009;Cernat 2006;Iankova 2002;lane und Myant 2007;lane 2007;Kollmorgen 2009). neue Impulse wurden insbesondere dort gesetzt, wo die aus den komplexen globalen, europäischen und nationalen bedingungsgefügen sowie umbruchprozessen resultierenden Varietäten Mittelost-und Osteuropas nicht nur als flüchtige Phänomene, sondern sich selbst stabilisierende und in bestimmter hinsicht gegenüber Westeuropa "avantgardistische" Formationen begriffen werden (siehe unten 4.1).…”

Zusammenfassung: der Aufsatz erkundet die entwicklungen des transformationstheoretischen diskurses über den Postsozialismus seit 1998, wobei insbesondere theoretisch-konzeptuelle Reorientierungen und Innovationen interessieren. Nach der Identifikation wichtiger neuer oder diskursiv gestärkter Ansätze werden drei von ihnen näher vorgestellt und diskutiert: der Postkommunismusansatz, steuerungstheoretische Zugänge sowie Ansätze der europäisierung. Zusammenfassend lässt sich tatsächlich von einer "zweiten generation" transformationstheoretischer Ansätze sprechen. diese hat von universalistischen Annahmen weitgehend Abschied genommen sowie durch komplexere Theoriearchitekturen und systematische raum-zeitliche einbettungen bzw. Kontextualisierungen an erklärungskraft gewonnen. Zugleich wird ein intensiver Austausch mit allgemeinen Wandlungstheorien erkennbar. Abschließend wirbt der beitrag für die Anerkennung der Möglichkeit und notwendigkeit einer interdisziplinären und fallgruppen-übergreifenden Theorie der Gesellschaftstransformation. diese wirft aber noch vielfältige metatheoretische Probleme auf.Abstract: The article explores the theoretical debates on postcommunist transformations since 1998 with a focus on substantial reorientations and innovations. After identifying important novel or discursively strengthened approaches, three of them are presented and critically discussed in more detail: the post-communism approach, the steering or governance approach, and the europeanization approach. The examination leads to the result that, indeed, a "second generation" has emerged. It has largely overcome universalistic assumptions and gained explanatory power by more complex theoretical architectures as well as systematic time-space-embeddings or contextualizations. The new generation also demonstrates an intensive exchange with the field of general theories of social change. A final consideration makes the case for interdisciplinary berlin J Soziol (2011) 21:295-319 La théorie de la transition économique sur de nouvelles voies? L'évolution du débat théorique et conceptuel sur les bouleversements de l'ère post-socialiste après 1998/1999 Résumé: Cet article explore l'évolution du discours théorique sur le post-socialisme depuis 1998 avec un intérêt tout particulier pour les réorientations théoriques et conceptuelles et les innovations. Après avoir identifié plusieurs nouvelles approches importantes ou renforcées discursivement, nous présentons et discutons trois d'entre elles plus en détail: l'approche post-communiste, les perspectives inspirées par la théorie de la régulation ainsi que les approches de l'européanisation. en résumé, on peut effectivement parler d'une «deuxième génération» d'approches théoriques de la transition. Celle-ci a largement abandonné les hypothèses universalistes et gagné en pouvoir explicatif grâce à des architectures théoriques plus complexes et une contextualisation spatio-temporelle systématique. Parallèlement, on observe un échange intense avec les théories générales de la transformation....

“…Against this background, we assume that the analyzed attitudes and opinions toward the role of government are structured similarly to welfare regimes and thus follow analyses such as Stefan Svallfors (1997Svallfors ( , 2003 and Ursula Dallinger (2010). Consulting literature on types of regimes, we follow Gøsta Esping-Andersen's (1990) classical three worlds of welfare capitalism (liberal, conservative, and social democratic regimes) and the subsequent subdivisions such as radical welfare states, which are seen as a type of liberal regime (Castles and Mitchell 1993), and former socialist countries (Fenger 2007;Kollmorgen 2009). As for the latter, our analysis, however, includes only Hungary.…”

This contribution presents descriptive findings on individual attitudes and public opinion based on the International Social Survey Program Role of Government module. It covers the period from 1985 to 2016 and is guided by the idea that attitudes and opinions are aligned with the international divisions in different welfare regimes. The analysis includes all countries that fielded this ISSP survey continuously from 1985 (Australia, Germany, United Kingdom, and the United States) or 1990 (Hungary, Israel, and Norway). Our results show that attitudes and opinions remain rather stable over time and parallel the different welfare regimes. There is no clear evidence of a growing support for liberalization and deregulation across all countries despite the increasing market orientation in many countries.
