Abstract
Současná transformace kapitalismu začala na konci šedesátých a začátku sedmdesátých let dvacátého století. Jejím výsledkem je měnící se charakter kapitalistického hospodář- ského a společenského systému. Relativně rychlé změny ve způsobu kapitalistické výroby a akumulace jsou doprovázeny společenskými, politickými a kulturními změnami. Tato globální reorganizace kapitalismu byla a je rozdílně interpretována různými školami myšlení.
The contemporary transition of capitalism is changing the nature of the capitalist economic and social system. This paper focuses on the debate around the alleged transition from Fordism to post-Fordism. It identifies and critically evaluates four Western schools of thought engaged in this debate: Schumpeterian and neo-Schumpeterian perspective, flexible specialisation, regulation theory and the Marxist perspective. The paper also shows how some of these approaches, namely the regulation theory and the Marxist perspectives, approach the transition from state socialism to capitalism in Central and Eastern Europe. I demonstrate that out of these four approaches the work of Western Marxist sociologists on the transition in Russia has so far provided the most thorough analysis of the transition in Central and Eastern Europe. It is questionable, however, to what extent the results of their analyses are applicable to the situation in different countries of Central and Eastern Europe.
